LOL! @Apple, the world's "richest" company ... can't even get their words right! Which begs the question ... how much are they paying for their lawyers? Oh well ... "Apple has 48 hours to re-write a statement on its website relating to its design rights dispute with Samsung, UK judges have ruled. Apple was forced on 18 October to publish a message making it clear that Samsung had not infringed the iPad's registered design. However Samsung complained the statement Apple had posted did not comply with the court order. Judges agreed and have told Apple it must be removed within 24 hours. A new, compliant version must then be posted. Michael Beloff QC, representing Apple, told judges that the company had thought that it had complied with the court order. "It's not designed to punish," he said. "It's not designed to make us grovel. The only purpose must be to dispel commercial uncertainty." He asked that the company be given 14 days to post the replacement - but the request was firmly denied." Source: BBC |
