APPLE PLEADS COURT TO KICK SAMSUNG SMARTPHONES, TABLETS OUT OF THE COUNTRY!

The battle is on! Apple has now asked a federal judge to bar the selling of Samsung smartphones and tablets in the United States in the patent case against the South Korean firm, AFP reported Friday.
Apple is now becoming furious and wants Samsung products to be sent out of the country. In a court filing in California, Apple has said firmly that several Samsung smartphones and tablet computers were found to have violate patents in a jury trial held in 2012.
Following the decision of an appeals court last month that cleared the way for a possibly new hearing on the patent case, Apple has renewed its bid for a permanent injunction on sales of a number of Samsung products.
The court "previously concluded that Samsung's sale of infringing products has irreparably harmed Apple," Apple's attorney wrote in the latest filing Thursday.
The attorney even added that the decision of the appeals court "makes clear that the record evidence... collectively demonstrates a sufficient 'causal nexus' between Samsung's infringement and the irreparable harm to Apple."
Moreover, the company claimed that "money damages are not an adequate remedy for Samsung's infringement of these patents."
Now, Apple wants a ban on Samsung smartphone models including "Captivate, Continuum, Droid Charge, Epic 4G, Exhibit 4G, Fascinate, Galaxy Ace, Galaxy Prevail, Galaxy S, Galaxy S 4G, Gem, Indulge, Infuse, Mesmerize, Nexus S 4G, Replenish, Vibrant, Transform and three versions of the Galaxy S II."
As for the tablet computers, the US firm wants to kick the "Galaxy Tab and Tab 10.1 tablets" out of the country.
However, Apple left out the newest Samsung devices since they are not part of the issue in the trial because of the fast product cycles in the industry.
Additionally, the US firm has ordered that the South Korean firm - currently the largest maker of smartphones - to pay more than $900 million after a retrial on some of the issues in the patent case.
