Judge: Samsung gets to view Apple-HTC settlement details
Samsung will be privy to some details of a confidential settlement agreement between Apple and HTC, a California judge ruled today.
Samsung's lawyers were given the go-ahead to view confidential details of the agreement that made peace between Apple and HTC earlier this month, following an impromptu hearing ordered by Magistrate Judge Singh Grewal this morning.
That deal, announced November 10, put an end to all litigation between the two companies. Many expect the same thing to eventually happen between Apple and Samsung, but recent comments made by officials of the South Korean technology giant suggest even talks about a deal are out of the question.
