`
`Plaintiff Apple Inc. (“Apple”) complains and alleges as follows against Defendants
`
`Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung
`
`Telecommunications America, LLC (collectively “Samsung”).
`
`THE NATURE OF THE ACTION
`
`1.
`
`Apple revolutionized the market in personal computing devices. Apple’s iconic
`
`mobile devices, including the iPhone and iPad, are now among the most distinctive and
`
`successful products in the world. The revolutionary patented design and user experience of these
`
`products are the result of Apple’s massive investment in innovation and have contributed to the
`
`extraordinary acclaim and success of Apple’s products.
`
`2.
`
`Samsung has systematically copied Apple’s innovative technology and products,
`
`features, and designs, and has deluged markets with infringing devices in an effort to usurp
`
`market share from Apple. Instead of pursuing independent product development, Samsung
`
`slavishly copied Apple’s innovative technology, with its elegant and distinctive user interfaces
`
`product design, in violation of Apple’s valuable intellectual property rights.
`3.
`In April 2011, Apple sued Samsung in this Court for a previous round ofproducts
`
`that infringe intellectual property rights related to Apple’s iPhone and iPad mobile devices:
`
`Apple Inc. V. Samsung Electronics C0,, Ltd., et al., Case No. 5:11-cv-01846-LHK, which is set for
`trial before the Honorable Lucy H. Koh on July 30, 2012 (hereinafter the “Earlier Case’;).
`
`Despite that lawsuit, Samsung has continued to flood the market with copycat products, including
`
`at least eighteen new infringing products released over the last eight months. While Samsung’s
`
`new products infringe many of the same design patents, utility patents, trademarks, and trade
`
`dress rights that are at issue in the Earlier Case, Samsung’s new products also infringe additional
`
`utility patents, some of which issued after Apple filed the Earlier Case.
`
`4.
`
`Apple is filing this suit to put an end to Samsung’s continued infringement.
`
`5.
`
`Apple is a California corporation having its principal place of business at 1 Infinite

`
`Asia’s largest electronics companies. SEC designs, manufactures, and provides to the U.S. and
`

`

`

`Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (referred to individually herein as “SEA”) is a
`
`New York corporation with its principal place of business at 85 Challenger Road, Ridgefield

`
`information and belief, SEA also manages the North American operations of Samsung

`

`
`JURISDICTION
`

`
`This Court has subject matter jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1331 (federal
`
`question) and 28 U.S.C. § 1338(a) (any Act of Congress relating tohpatents or trademarks).
`
`10.
`
`This Court has personal jurisdiction over SEC, SBA, and STA because each of
`
`these Samsung entities has committed and continues to commit acts of infringement in violation
`
`of 35 U.S.C. § 271 and places infringing products into the stream of commerce, with the
`
`knowledge or understanding that such products are sold in the State of California, including in
`
`this District. The acts by SEC, SBA, and STA cause injury to Apple within this District. Upon
`
`information and belief, SEC, SEA, and STA derive substantial revenue from the sale of infringing

`products within this District, expect their actions to have consequences within this District, and
`
`derive substantial revenue from interstate and international commerce.
`
`VENUE AND INTRADISTRICT ASSIGNMENT
`
`11.
`
`Venue is proper within this District under 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and (c) because
`
`Sarnsung transacts business within this District and offers for sale in this District products that
`
`infringe the Apple patents. In addition, venue is proper because Apple’s principal place of
`
`business is in this District and Apple suffered harm in this District. Moreover, a substantial part
`
`of the events giving rise to the claims occurred in this District. Pursuant to Local Rule 3-2(c),
`
`intellectual property actions are assigned on a district-wide basis. Further, SEC has
`
`counterclaimed against Apple in this District, and its accusations with respect to its purportedly
`
`owned patents have had harmful effects in this District.

`
`SAMSUNG’SINFRINGING PRODUCTS
`
`13.
`
`Rather than innovate and develop its own technology and a unique Samsung style
`
`for its smart phone and tablet computer products, Samsung has chosen to copy Apple’s
`
`technology, user interface, and innovative style in its phone, media player, and tablet computer
`
`products.
`
`14.
`
`As detailed in the Amended Complaint in the Earlier Case, Samsung released a
`
`series of products in 2010 and early 2011 that slavishly copied Apple’s iPhone, iPod, and iPad
`
`products.
`
`15.
`
`Samsung continues to choose to infringe Apple’s patent rights through the design
`
`and promotion of its mobile phones, tablet computers, and media players to trade upon the
`
`goodwill that Apple has developed in connection with its Apple family of mobile products.
`
`16.
`
`Beginning in August 2011 and continuing through December 2011, Samsung
`
`released at least 17 new infringing smartphones, media players, and tablets. Specifically,
`
`Samsung has imported into, offered for sale, or sold in the United States the following products,
`
`each of which infringes Apple’s patent rights:
`
`the Galaxy S 11 Skyrocket, Galaxy S II Epic 4G
`
`Touch, Galaxy S 11 - T-Mobile, Galaxy S II - AT&T, Galaxy Nexus, Illusion, Captivate Glide,
`Exhibit II 4G, Stratosphere, Transform Ultra, Admire, Conquer 4G, and Dart smartphones, the
`
`Galaxy Player 4.0 and Galaxy Player 5.0 media players, and the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus and Galaxy
`
`Tab 8.9 tablets.
