Apple asks US court to ban Samsung phones, tablets

DHAKA: Apple has asked a federal judge to bar US sales of Samsung smartphones and tablet computers in the blockbuster patent case involving the two electronics giants.

In a court filing in California, Apple said the smartphones and tablets were found to have violated patents in a jury trial held last year.

Apple renewed its bid for a permanent injunction on sales of a number of Samsung products after an appeals court decision last month cleared the way for a new hearing on the matter.

In the latest filing dated Thursday, Apple’s attorneys wrote that the court ‘previously concluded that Samsung’s sale of infringing products has irreparably harmed Apple’.

The document added that the appeals court decision ‘makes clear that the record evidence... collectively demonstrates a sufficient `causal nexus’ between Samsung’s infringement and the irreparable harm to Apple’, reports The Straits Times.
