# Summary of Court Order on Permanent Injunction

In the case of Apple Inc. v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (Case No. 12-cv-00630-LHK), the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, has issued a Permanent Injunction in favor of Apple Inc. against Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC.

## Key Findings:

- Patent Infringement: Samsung has infringed upon three Apple patents: U.S. Patent No. 5,946,647 ('647 patent), U.S. Patent No. 8,046,721 ('721 patent), and U.S. Patent No. 8,074,172 ('172 patent).
- Infringing Features: The court identified specific features in Samsung's products that infringe upon the above patents:
- Data detection/linking feature in various Samsung devices (Admire, Galaxy Nexus, etc.).
- Slide-to-unlock feature in Admire, Galaxy Nexus, and Stratosphere.
- Autocorrect feature in multiple Samsung models.
- Irreparable Harm: The court concluded that Apple would suffer irreparable harm if Samsung continues to use these infringing features, as monetary damages may not adequately compensate for such harm.
- Balance of Equities: The balance of equities and public interest favor the entry of a permanent injunction.

## Injunction Terms:

- Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., its officers, directors, agents, etc., are enjoined from infringing upon the mentioned Apple patents by:
- Making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing software/code implementing the infringing features.

- Advertising, marketing, or promoting infringing features.
- Requesting or assisting third parties to engage in any of the above activities.
- The injunction will be stayed for 30 days after the order is entered.
- The court retains jurisdiction to modify, extend, or terminate the injunction as needed and to resolve disputes regarding non-infringing features that are colorably different from the identified infringing ones.
