Apple at the European courts

In the list of things considered important in a case involving patents and copy the design, I would say that reliability of evidence provided to the court would be well on top. After all what kind of business change, for example, images of a cell so that it resembles more to your own?


Apparently there is a certain company in Cupertino that it sees no problems.

A few months ago Apple filed a lawsuit against Samsung in the courts of several countries for patent infringement, claiming that the Korean manufacturer had copied not only the design of the iPad as the iPhone also, in its Galaxy and Galaxy Tab S. And as proof of patent infringement that she sent a picture in which two units are side by side. But before sending the company used to give the image a touch.

So says the site WebWereld.nl, who saw the documents in the Dutch court process and realized that one of the photos in the Galaxy the ratio S was changed. The above image, a rendering of the document seen by the editors of the site and available at the court, shows that the true size of the Galaxy S (right) is slightly larger than Apple has shown in the documents.
 
At least the apple company that has demonstrated consistency. Earlier this week she had been accused of having tampered with the proportion of the Galaxy Tab on the evidence related to a similar process in the German courts open, as you can see above. Apple calls this process the sales of infringing products from Samsung cease immediately all over Europe. But do not think they will achieve this by changing the process document images.
