That's a pretty serious charge to be making without evidence.
Not arguing that it looks very one-sided with disallowing evidence, but
accusations of bribery should be backed up.
Especially here.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I think that if the judge were to sanction Samsung, the Supreme court would side
with Samsung in the long run, just as they did with a recent case in the News
Picks here where a lawyer was sanctioned for saying things in public. and not in
the courtroom. It is a matter of constitutional rights, specifically those
granted by the first and fourth amendments. Samsung has a right to publicly
state their disagreement with the court and the press has a right to publish
reports on those statements. For a judge to sanction them for exercising their
constitutional rights would be a travesty of justice. The jury has instructions
to not look at or listen to anything from the press concerning this trial, so a
public press release not made in front of the jury, but to the public via the
press, should not have any effect on the outcome of the trial, so sanctions are
unwarranted.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

If Apple had scruples, they would let Samsung present the evidence of the
earlier design, even if it came too late in discovery to be normally considered
as evidence. They aren't winning friends in the court of public opinion.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Who released Apple's letter requesting emergency sanctions against Samsung to
the media? Perhaps, Apple's own attorneys and will Judge Koh have a talk with
MoFo's attorneys. When is the judge going to stop both parties shenanigans. I
suspect the reason for her not accepting Samsung's evidence is it may have given
Apple some basis for an appeal - as the evidence was too late for discovery and
all. However, if she were interested in justice all evidence late or not should
be weighed by the jury and not the whims of Apple.
