God, please make it stop. This farce has dragged on and wasted taxpayers money (court time) for far too long.
Demanding a retrial??? Pleeease. And the “no reasonable jury” line? A joke, both pathetic and embarrassing.
Samsung need to accept they got caught with their hands in the cookie jar and cough up. Intellectual property theft is not a misdemeanour.
What I don’t understand in this baseline slugfest of litigation though, is why when ruling, the judge doesn’t stop any appeal in its tracks?
Either restrict Samsung’s ability to appeal or apply a warning (reinstating the original fine of $billions) if they make a new application looking to redress (appeal in all but name).
In civil law, normally you can only appeal if there’s been a demonstrable and serious error made by the judge in applying the law, or a fundamental finding of fact that can be shown to be false.
Otherwise the rest of us mere mortals without bottomless funds for legal counsel, have to just suck it up and get on with our lives.
