For those wanting some context - this is the second lawsuit Apple filed against Samsung. Apple was seeking 2.5 Billion in compensation and a jury awarded them 128 Million. Samsung appealed the decision and the verdict was thrown out. Apple now must now compensate Samsung for its legal costs as well as pay millions in damages. So, Samsung has finally won round 2. Round 1, in which a judgement of 548 Million was awarded to Apple, is being appealed to the Supreme Court with Samsung's argument having the support of nearly all of the tech titans in Silicon Valley. The award of 548 Million to Apple has come under further scrutiny as a number of patents used in the first trial have have been invalidated by the USPTO.
