Apple (AAPL) on Monday gave a federal judge a list of eight Samsung products it wants pulled from shelves and banned from the U.S. market.
U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh asked for the list after a jury in San Jose last week slammed Samsung with a $1.05 billion verdict, finding that the South Korean technology giant had "willfully" copied Apple's iPhone and iPad in creating and marketing the products. Samsung plans an appeal.
The list of smartphones that Apple would like to see removed from the market is as follows: Galaxy S 4G, Galaxy S II (AT & T) Galaxy S II (Skyrocket), Galaxy S II (T-Mobile) Galaxy S II Epic 4G Galaxy S Showcase Galaxy Prevail and Droid Charge. The Galaxy S II is the main target to kill in his versions offered by U.S. carriers.
Koh on June 26 banned the Galaxy Tab 10.1 from the U.S. market after finding it likely violated a "design patent." Samsung is now asking for that ban to be lifted after the jury found the computer tablet didn't infringe that particular patent, but it did find it infringed three Apple's software patents that cover the popular "bounce-back" and pinch-to-zoom features.
The judge has scheduled a Sept. 20 hearing to discuss Apple's demands for the sales bans. She asked Apple on Friday to submit the list of products its wants removed from U.S. stores after Samsung complained it doesn't have enough time to prepare for the scheduled hearing.
For its part, Samsung took the floor and told the Wall Street Journal 's willingness to fight against the ban on its products in the USA. "We will take all necessary measures to ensure the availability of our products in the U.S. market." Said the firm, which board already on changes terminals covered by the ban, pending the launch of the procedure appeal, which could delay the proceedings.
