Samsung Plays "2001" Card in Defense Against Apple Suit

[Guest BSchwarz]

By Paul Thurrott

One of my favorite legal ploys is "prior use": Some company is suing another company for violating a patent (or whatever) that they own, and then--BAM!--the defending company pulls an ace out of its sleeve and comes up with an example of prior use, proving that the suing company doesn’t even own the technology in question. The case is thrown out of court, the crowd goes wild.
