Angering the Judge

What sort of court culture is there if that sort of Apple histrionic is to be
expected?
Has the yellow press invaded the court room.

Angering the Judge

...as far as I've heard Apple has not been allowed to bring in evidence after that deadline...
Surely the plaintiff should have all the required evidence of their case to hand BEFORE they even start filing with the court to sue the defendant; this evidence could include [reasonable] suspicion which would require discovery to prove. A defendant, on the other hand, will not know what evidence is [being used] against them until they are presented officially by the court and as such should have more lenience as to finding compelling evidence to their innocence.

Having a deadline for main evidence is reasonable, but it should be flexible if compelling evidence is later found. However, for a plaintiff the required standard of evidence for late submission should be much higher than that of the defendant.

So Apple having late evidence rejected is no basis for Samsung not having late evidence allowed (especially as the Samsung evidence appears to suggest that their design is of older vintage than the actual introduction [to the public] of the design Apple claims Samsung copied).

I am being increasingly convinced that if Apple were a person it would be the
kind of billionaire that locks himself in a room, covers everything with paper
towels, collects urine in bottles, and never cuts their nails.

Brilliant still... but crazy and out of touch.

F700 Design Leaked 4 Months Prior to iPhone at MacWorld!
Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, August 02 2012 @ 04:31 PM EDT
Naturally they didn't publicly release F700 at MacWorld in
January. :D
But... it was however publicly released at CES in February
2007.

F700 leaked photos August 2006 four months prior to iPhone:

But more importantly, the design components (case, chips,
external, internal parts) were already in production well
before iPhone Release at MacWorld.

Actual assembly of the F700 also started well before iPhones
and F700 was being offered for sale a whole month before
iPhone went on sale!

You've gotta give credit to Foxconn for bringing the iPhone
to market in record time though. They miraculously engineered
and manufactured the external design components (case) and
assembled them in record time!

But... which device resembled the other. Which Apple Napkin
drawing did Apple use? and therefore; Did the iPhone resemble
it or the F700? You be the judge:
http://theiphonefever.blogspot.com/2011/09/apples-iphone-
before-leaked-samsung.html

After F700 patent design had been applied for and the photos
leaked four months earlier in August 2006, did the iPhone not
resemble F700 more? In this case the Judge was wrong to have
destroyed much of Samsung's evidence in this case and remove
the only chance they had to prove their innocence. Not having
to wait for an appeal that'll most likely take longer to
recoup the damage Apple is being allowed to inflict on their
reputation!

The Facts and Truth should always override deadlines. Now
Samsung has to wait for an Appeal to prove they didn't copy
the iPhone!

btw, Edgar Murtasin, who it is believed took the leaked
photos of F700 in August 2006, was relentlessly DDoS attacked
, after his review of iPhone seeming to resemble Samsung's
F700, rather than the other way around:
