After its victory over Samsung, Apple asked for an injunction on a few of the Korean giant's current devices.
The bans would be on the Galaxy S 4G, two versions of the Galaxy S II, Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, Galaxy S2 Epic 4G, Galaxy S Showcase, Droid Charge, and the Galaxy Prevail. None of those devices are really "new" persay, but some still command some sales.
Unfortunately for Apple, the first hearing will not be until December 6th, a point in which the devices will all be hugely outdated.
Samsung has until October 19th to file any formal response, and Apple has until November 9th to reply.
There are some stipulations, however, explains PCM: "Samsung must make its case in 35 pages or less and Cupertino only has 15 pages."
Samsung has also asked to have a ban on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 overturned, since a iPad design patent was ruled to not be violated. Apple has a week to respond to that request, followed by Samsung getting another week to reply. The hearing will take place on September 20th or not at all if the judge agrees to lift the ban earlier.
