Apple told a judge Tuesday that Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10.1 device infringes its patents and sought to add the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system to an existing lawsuit against Samsung in California.
Apple made the arguments to U.S. Magistrate Judge Paul S. Grewal in federal court in San Jose. Apple’s bid to expand the lawsuit follows Samsung’s Oct. 1 move to add patent-infringement claims against the iPhone 5 in the same case. Apple won a $1.05 billion jury verdict against Samsung on Aug. 24 in a separate patent case in the same court. Filings by both companies show no let-up in their battle on four continents to retain dominance in the smartphone market.
