Now Apple is Claiming 278 patents against Korean electronics giant href=”http://www.samsung.com/” rel=”homepage” target=”_blank” title=”Samsung”>Samsung in Australia. Samsung lead barrister href=”http://neilyoung.com/” rel=”homepage” target=”_blank” title=”Neil Young”>Neil Young SC said Apple had “enormously” expanded its patent bid which initially involved three patents of features in the Korean company’s Galaxy Tab 10.1.
According to barrister Neil Young, Samsung was only given days notice that href=”http://www.apple.com/” rel=”homepage” target=”_blank” title=”Apple”>Apple’s legal bid against the company had been amended to include over 200 claims against smartphones and tablets that haven’t even launched in the country. As a result Samsung said it would not be able to file a defence against the claim until mid-May.
In November, an Australian court overturned a ruling that had prevented Samsung from selling its Galaxy Tab 10.1 smartphone in the country, after Apple has successfully won an injunction against the device.
