Judge Tosses Patent Verdict Against Apple, Orders New Trials
http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2016/08/01/technology/ap-us-tec-apple-patent-trial.html
A federal judge has tossed out a jury's decision calling for
Apple to pay $625.6 million in damages to a Nevada company
that claims Apple infringed on its patents for technology used
in Apple services like FaceTime and iMessage. The judge
decided Apple didn't receive a fair trial in a Texas courtroom
earlier this year because jurors heard arguments stemming from
two separate lawsuits, creating potential for confusion
because some of the claims had also been argued in an earlier
trial.
