Korean firm unable to persuade a New York court to wait for the results of arbitration



From V3:

A report in the Korea Times quoted US district judge Jed Rakoff as saying that the lawsuit will continue in spite of Samsung's request to wait for the results of arbitration being brokered by a Hong Kong firm.

A local patent expert told the Korea Times that the ruling will result in the court and the arbitration body handling the case separately, which "for the Samsung side isn't satisfactory".
