Apple Notches More Patent-Related Victories Against Android ...

According to Bloomberg?Apple has won another legal victory against rival Samsung, this time in front of the US International Trade Commission (ITC). Samsung had gone to the ITC to block import of iPhones and iPads (from China) into the US on the grounds that Apple had violated four of Samsung?s patents.?Administrative law judge James Gildea found that Apple didn?t violate any of the four?Samsung?patents in question.

The decision is still preliminary and not final; however it?s likely to stand. And it comes on the heels of Apple?s recent federal court trial victory against Samsung last month in San Jose, California.

Halfway across the world in Munich Germany a court said that Google-owned?Motorola Mobility will be compelled to empty the shelves of all its Android phones and tablets that infringe Apple?s ?bounce-back? patent, which was also at issue in the US Samsung trial.

In order to implement the decision in Germany, Apple will be?required?to post a bond and provide a list of products it seeks to have removed from the shelves. Motorola has the right to appeal the decision.
