苹果三星专利大战下周二重审

虽然大多数媒体报道称陪审团去年判罚三星赔偿给苹果的10亿美元赔偿金已经被砍去将近一半，然而事实并非如此，因为那宗诉案尚未结案，而是将在下周二开庭重审，如果苹果能够在重审中胜诉，那将成为历史上赔偿金额第二大的专利侵权案。

去年8月份负责审理那宗诉案的法官露西高（Lucy Koh）在6个月之后将赔偿金额削减了4亿美元。

针对三星提出的上诉，露西高法官在今年3月作出裁决称，陪审团在计算苹果的损失时出现错误，具体的赔偿金额需等案件重新审理后再定。

很多专家认为，案件重审后确定的赔偿金额可能会低于原先的赔偿金额。但是从理论上来说，赔偿金额也可能会增加。

该案第一次审理时出现的其中一个问题是，陪审团必须填写的损失计算表格是一份长达20页的法律和数学迷宫。据FOSS Patents的弗洛里安穆勒（Florian Mueller）称，在重审案件时，三星的代表律师声称陪审团的表格太过复杂。

三星代表律师称：“三星希望见到一份更为清晰的损失统计表，指明每款产品不同类型的损失各是多少。公司还希望法庭命令陪审团不但要列出损失金额的数据，而且还要标明损失的类型。”

然而，苹果的法律团队已经吸取了这些教训。他们提出了一张只有一页的表格，露西高法官已经同意使用那张表格。

穆勒称：“三星一直想把案件重审的水搅浑，但是一直都没能成功。”

该案的第三次审理将涉及到三星在案件立案之后的两年半时间里发布的一些产品比如GS3，预计第三次审理将从2014年3月份开始。
