SAN JOSE, Calif.--Hours after chiding Apple for stacking up too many witnesses, the judge in the case between Apple and Samsung turned her attention to what she considered a strategical blunder on Samsung's part.
After each in a train of Apple witnesses were through with their testimony, Samsung passed on trying to cross-examine, citing a lack of time. When the court was about to go on its afternoon break, U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh warned Samsung's lawyers that they better not try to file any paperwork saying they didn't have enough time.
"Samsung made a strategic decision to use more time to cross examine," Koh said. "I am not going to allow the parties to file something that says you were unable to file, because you made a strategic decision."
Koh pointed out that the company had spent 14 of its allotted 25 hours cross examining Apple's witnesses versus saving up some of the time to make its own case.
