Apple's last statement that they were mandated to post in regards to the Samsung vs. Apple patent verdicts was not enough to appease the UK courts. According to the London court, Apple's newly revised statement was still misleading.
Ordered to post a two-paragraph corrective on its website and in the British press, Apple not only dragged its heels, but it broke up the required paragraphs and interspersed language of its own devising -- including a bit about a judge ruling that the Samsung Galaxy Tab was "not as cool" as the iPad -- language that was, according to Samsung, false and misleading.
The London Court agrees with Samsung and feels that Apple has, again, twisted its words and the original order. This time the courts have ordered Apple to pay all of Samsung's legal fees from day one of the trial. This includes everything from phone calls to parking fees. Ouch.
