Samsung Wants Courts To Toss $930m Verdict In Its Lawsuit Against Apple

samsung logoYou might recall that a while back in the Apple versus Samsung lawsuit that Apple was awarded a whopping $930 million in damages. However since then, both companies have kind of stayed out of the spotlight as far as their legal issues were concerned and have agreed to drop most of their legal battles against one another.

However Samsung is back in the headlines as they have recently filed an appeal with the US Court of Appeals asking them to toss the $930 million verdict that was awarded to Apple. According to a report from Bloomberg, it seems that Samsung is still a bit indignant that they were accused of copying Apple’s designs.

According to Kathleen Sullivan who represents Samsung, “They awarded Samsung’s total profit for all of these phones — this is absurd. It’s like awarding the profit of an entire car because of infringement of the design of the cupholder.” However according to Apple’s lawyer William Lee of WilmerHale, “After two years, their market share was plummeting. In three months, they came up with something that was identical” to the iPhone.”

It is unclear if the courts will rule in Samsung’s favor this time, but their decision isn’t expected for several months, so we guess we’ll just have to wait and find out.
