WE’RE ALL FOLLOWING THE APPLE V. SAMSUNG CASE AGAIN. We thought it was over.... .

Here’s a snip we found over at LTN, check this out:

U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh of the Northern District of California said Thursday she would issue a series of rulings over the next several weeks resolving the many legal issues raised at the hearing Thursday. Samsung is seeking a new trial or a reduction of the verdict that resulted from a lawsuit Apple filed in 2011. Apple, on the other hand, urged the judge to add millions more to the award and permanently ban the U.S. sales of eight Samsung smartphone models a jury in August said illegally used Apple technology.

Koh gave no indication on how she would rule on the sales ban request nor by what amount she would cut from the $1 billion award. Samsung was demanding that she cut the award by more than half, but Koh gave no hint that she sided with that argument or Apple’s separate argument for an increase in the award.

Apple filed a second lawsuit earlier this year, alleging that Samsung’s newer products are unfairly using Apple’s technology. That’s set for trial in 2014. In addition, the two companies are locked in legal battles in several other countries.

“I think it’s time for global peace,” Koh said at an end of a nearly four-hour hearing in San Jose.

Global peace. This is possibly the coolest statement on record ever from a judge. We’re expecting alot more litigation out of Cupertino especially when (or if) the real Microsoft Surface ever arrives. Something about that ‘Mag-Safe-ey’ keyboard / smart cover thing theyve got going seems somehow reminiscent of um, something else i’ve seen recently. . .
