SAMSUNG Electronics Co sought a court order to force Apple Inc to disclose iPhone and iPad models under development, claiming it needs the information to defend against allegations of copying.
Samsung must see the final versions of the iPhone and iPad to "evaluate whether a likelihood of confusion exists" between Samsung and Apple products likely go on sale about the same time, according to documents filed last Friday by the South Korean firm in California. Samsung is asking Apple to turn over the samples by June 13.
The move comes a month after Apple asked the court to order the South Korean company to disclose unreleased Samsung products.
Samsung's request is part of a legal dispute between them, which began in April when Apple claimed Samsung's Galaxy products "slavishly" copied iPad and iPhone technology and design.
