In a surprising move, Nokia will be supporting its
market rival Apple to secure injunctions on
several Samsung's product. The Finnish
manufacturer will remain the only alien company
to support the Cupertino giant in its appeal.
Nokia in its filling at the US Court of Appeals for
the Federal Circuit in Washington argued that the
court was wrong in denying the Apple's plead
for the injunction. Interestingly, Nokia had instituted legal
proceedings against Apple three years ago, but now, the companies have
joined hands to fight
against the current market leaders. Meanwhile, Apple had requested the Federal
Circuit to speed up its appeal and schedule a
hearing immediately. The court however has
rejected Apple's plea and has a referred the case
to a three member judge panel.
