Dutch court somewhat upholds software patent?
TO BE CONFIRMED.
This ruling is only a "preliminary injunction", the result of request for a fast decision, so it carries a little less weight in terms of creating case law.
A Dutch court ruled that Apple's patent EP2,059,868, on "method of scrolling", was violated by Samsung.
Summary
- Apple accused Samsung of violating three patents:
- EP2,059,868 - The judge ruled that Samsung violated this patent (with the S and SII Galaxy Tabs, but not the 10.1)
- EP1,964,022 - Invalidated by the judge
