People who solve the dispute between Apple and Samsung
After all the altercations between Apple’s and Samsung’s lawyers, the court moves to a stage when randomly selected people who make up the jury should start a discussion of the case and issue a verdict that either Samsung will pay Apple $ 2.5 billion or vice versa to part with $ 399 million for false accusations of illegal use of patents in favor of the company from South Korea.
A number of online publications conducted a small study and found out who those people that make up the jury trial for Apple vs. Samsung, which will have to solve one of the biggest disputes in the mobile industry. It is curious that jurors will have to have specific information in a list of more than 700 questions to which they must answer “yes” or “no”; however, Judge Lucy Koch (Lucy Koh) rightly observes that, although she herself spent a little more time with the case materials than the jury, she also had some misunderstandings.
List of jurors:
All these people must make a unanimous decision and, if the parties are guilty (and that there is no doubt that such a decision will follow, since the essence of the matter is mutually exclusive), decide on the amount of compensation or agree with the amount of the original claim.
')
Thus, the most democratic approach to a court decision on a complex and controversial case depends on nine people, most of whom are at best only consumers of mobile electronics from one of the companies and are unlikely to understand the subtleties of the design of tablets and smartphones. It is curious that Apple’s claims on Samsung also about the Galaxy Tab’s similarity to iPads in Europe were rejected by the original judge Alsop, who even made Apple to publicly admit that their device doesn’t look like a Samsung device, since it is “not so cool”.
