The more such Apple's media rubbish that comes to light, the better. The judge
and Apple's reputations stand sullied by the goings-on in this case. Shame on
them.[ Reply to This | # ]

Reports are in that Apple's motion for sanctions has been denied. Apparently
the judge, however frazzled, has enough sanity left to realize that there is
absolutely no way to justify sanctions here.
That said, I wish this lawyer the best of luck in dealing with an angry judge.[ Reply to This | # ]

"During his opening statement, Apple‘s counsel displayed a chart of a

23:"
Let me see if I get this straight. So, Apple is allowed to show pictures from a
cherry picked timeline of Samsung phones, pre- and post-iPhone during their
opening statement.
But, Judge Koh wouldn't let Samsung show their version of what Samsung phones of
the time looked like.
This is so strange. One could possibly even call it a mystery.
There must be something really really important I missed here.

Because each of the five factors favors dismissal, and in view of
the availability of lesser sanctions, it would be reversible error to grant the
relief Apple has "recommended."
Translation: "There is no way
that we won't appeal this if you rule against us."
Actually, I felt
whilst reading Samsung's filing that there was a continuing, albeit unstated,
thread running through it: that their side of the story of the F700 design would
have been a slam-dunk against Apple's case; that her refusal to let it be
admitted would definitely be coming up at any appeal; and that if she didn't
want the embarrassment of being reversed she'd better find a way to save face
and let it in. But that's perhaps just me. [ Reply to This | # ]

Not "trolling" ye great ijiit, "polling"!!
This piece reminded me of something I've been wondering about:
Has anyone undertaken a survey of IP practitioners - litigators and others - to
find out how many read Groklaw and how much it has influenced their practice and
approach to IP?
Lawyers are hired to advocate their client's position, not Do the Right Thing,
so they're not suddenly going to see the light about software patents, et al,
but I'm curious to find out how much influence we've gained as a place to get
information and think accurately about the tech.
I would *really* love to know how many judges involved in IP cases have added
this site to their reading list, but I'm not sure there's an appropriate way to
find out.
Would anyone know how to go about doing that?

I mean what is her excuse? I haven't been able to find a reason why she won't
let Samsung defend itself.
Some commentators on Apple Insider are making strange claims that Samsung's
evidence was brought forward too late, but I just read that Apple had this
evidence in front of them at the beginning of February, 2012 and even used
discovery to question Samsung's designer about them in that same month. That's
six months ago. That's doesn't sound like an ambush and a reason to ban
evidence to me.
So that excuse doesn't hold water. Does anyone know what Judge Koh's
"reasoning" is (no matter how feeble) for disallowing Samsung to
defend itself?
Seriously, I don't know.

Depressing, yes. Also, very entertaining! I found the Groklaw

riveting! I give you two thumbs up and kudos for performing a
wonderful public service! Thanks, and keep up the great work!

And of course Samsung has that (those?), too.
Any bets on how many YEARS this
case will continue on? Both parties are
well-capitalized. Both parties will
appeal nearly everything they can. It will
probably hit the Supreme Court,
heck maybe even more than once.
Anyone think there will be a mistrial?

It is important to remember that when Apple moved to exclude the
F700 from evidence, Dkt. No. 1184-3, at 6, the Court denied Apple‘s motion,
ruling that all evidence as to the F700 was admissible, "including to rebut an
allegation of copying." Nonetheless, the Court later excluded all such evidence
from Samsung‘s opening statement.
Ouch! If that's
accurate1 that really raises the question of why the Court reversed
Course. This seems like a very strong point for a successful
appeal.
Additional images of the F700 and Samsung‘s related internal
models for that design were timely produced to Apple on February 3, 2012, and
Apple deposed the F700‘s principal designer, Hyoung Shin Park, on February 29,
2012. Over the course of her ten-hour deposition, Apple questioned Ms. Park at
length about the development of the F700 design, including the time period in
which F700 was developed, the nature of the project, the inspiration for the
phone designs, and the additional designs that were created during the project.
See Dkt. 1474. Apple‘s claim that the F700 copied Apple‘s patented designs
was consistent with the allegations of its original Complaint, where it
included the F700 as one of the accused products – although it later chose to
drop this claim (Dkt. No. 1178 at 2), undoubtedly recognizing it was
frivolous because the F700 predated the iPhone.
Oh my! If
accurate, it sounds like Apple dropped their claims against the F700, likely
didn't specify in pre-trial proceedings that they'd bring up the F700, then left
the F700 in their presentation. What a way to get your Perry Mason
moment.
And then the Judge followed up with preventing Samsung from
speaking about the F700... Double Ouch!
Here's hoping that:
A: If the
trail is accurate
and
B: The Judge realizes the connection
that
she issues an appropriate order allowing Samsung to rebut Apple's F700
statements.
1: At this point, I'm far more inclined to take Samsung's
representations at face value and less inclined to trust Apple's
representations.

The sanctions were denied.
And Apple wanted to seal this mornings
proceedings (jury not present).
That request was denied also.
Maybe Judge Koh has bought some
vowels.

I am beginning to think that part of the "problem" --- and the reason
the judge was "livid" when Apple reported Samsung's press statement,
is that basically judges have come to expect that people will basically tell
them the truth. After all, judges are very powerful. They know that people
will "spin" things, but they still expect that basically, at the core,
they are told the truth. Their job is to unwrap the "spin."
The problem is that, increasingly in the US legal system, corporations are
willing to commit wilful perjury to win their case, and they seem to have no
problem finding attorneys willing to commit the perjury on their behalf. We
have seen so much blatant lying in the cases Groklaw follows, and the judges
seem to be horribly gullible.
The judges have not yet adapted to all the lies. They are programmed to believe
that each side tells a version of the truth, and when one side is willing to
perjure themselves they can achieve a temporary advantage. Until judges wise
up, the lies and perjury will continue.[ Reply to This | # ]

I keep tripping over this phrase, here on GL, and all over the
tech press, usually referring to Apple's attempts to deny the
admission of Samsung's historic designs. Now history is what
I saw happening, and what you saw happening may well be
different, even of the same event, because you saw it from a
different angle with a different set of preconceptions.
History is always being rewritten. There are libraries full of
history books written by people who saw or heard things differently.
Then with the passage of time more people will re-interpret
that history in the light of a new set of moral principles.
I hope the jury were taught enough of this basic philosophy
to see that both parties are right, and both are wrong, and
neither deserve a penny.
The unfortunate part is that the court system works in a
mysterious way that allows the parties to ration the quantity
and quality of history that the jury is allowed to consider.

Apple wanted to submit into evidence a DVD
that contained various Apple
commercials
over the years. A chart made it in, but
the objection to the DVD
was sustained.
But, following the 'action'
here
it is both nauseating and rewarding reading the 'drama'
being
spewed by Apple.
The Reality Distortion Field is apparent, as both Schiller
and Forstall seem to be in sales pitch mode or something,
and seemingly act as
though the Apple tech is so great, and
developing it was such 'hard
work'.
The rewarding part is that Apple is using up a lot of
their
time.

Well, it seems to me Samsung may try to provoke a mistrial, since starting over
would get their evidence into the record. On the other hand, extremists like
Apple, Oracle and SCO have a habit of going too far with their tactics and
cutting their own throats. From where I sit, it seems to me Koh is trying
desperately to prevent a mistrial. So, the office pool is hereby under way:
which side will cause the mistrial? Putting my money on Apple.[ Reply to This | # ]
