Samsung’s emergency motion to stay the recent retrial in its ongoing legal battle with Apple has seen another set-back.

According to “FOSS Patents” (http://tinyurl.com/k988atx), U.S. District Court Judge Lucy Koh denied the motion. Apple had argued that Samsung’s request “crossed the bounds of reason.”

Last week in a retrial the jury awarded Apple US$290 million damages. The total damages awarded to Apple from Samsung so far is $929 million.
