ITC supports Apple: new block for Samsung, which awaits Obama - Macity

Into New block for Samsung by the ITC, which decreed the “ban” for two South Korean devices in the USA. Now Samsung has to wait for the intervention in favor of Obama, as long as certain.

New decision by ITC, the International Trade Commission, which has decreed the violation by two Samsung devices of an Apple patent, this would put the lock on Samsung imports for the two smartphones Transform SPH-M920 and Continuum SCH-1400. Now Samsung expects Obama, who will have 60 days to rule on the matter, as it has been for the last ITC’s decision in that case in favor of Samsung.Into The victory of Apple in the complex and the block for Samsung is however little thing: even if Obama had ruled in favor of the bl ock, the two devices have now a fairly narrow market appeal, having been acquitted of all charges on the Galaxy S 2 and the Galaxy Tab Also in the initial dispute Apple had thrown into the fray several patents, but according to what is decreed by the ITC, only two of these were infringed by Samsung devices.

Into Samsung was disappointed by the decision of the International Trade Commission, although it considers Apple now out of the game in an attempt to stand as a “monopolist of the rectangles with rounded corners,” while Apple said she was satisfied with what has been achieved, yet another demonstration of how is wrong “strategy of plagiarism Samsung.”

Into Despite the lack of importance that the blockade of ITC for Samsung seems to have a point of view, the potential block certainly has an important strategic role: in this case Samsung will enjoy a window of 60 days to wait before the expiry of which Obama could intervene again by reversing the decision of the ITC and rejecting the prohibition of imports for the devices, as was the case in favor of Apple for the first time since 1987.

Into The majority of observers assumed that Obama’s speech: if the U.S. president decided this time not to intervene, it could set off a harsh reproach to the U.S. presidential administration for a clear favoritism towards home businesses, already demonstrated concern from different associations in the U.S.. Obama could intervene again and instead release the lock for Samsung hard and give a signal with respect to all the companies that decide to want to bring the competition on the benches of the court too lightly, which could thus wasting time and resources to be at the end with a nothing.
