San Jose, California: Fresh off its court victory over Samsung Electronics Co, iPhone maker Apple Inc is asking a federal court to add four more of its rival’s products to the list of patent-infringing products. The new products include Samsung’s new Galaxy S III smartphone. Apple filed documents in San Jose federal district court on Friday asking a judge to end Samsung’s release of “copycat products,” and urged the court to pull Samsung products released after its lawsuit was filed in April. Previously Apple had listed 17 Samsung products as patent violators, but the new filing lists 21. These included the Galaxy S II and Droid Charge. While Apple’s lawsuit encompassed 28 devices, many of those accused products are no longer widely available in the world’s largest mobile market.

Apple was awarded $1.05 billion by a jury on 24 August, finding Samsung had copied Apple’s design innovations. A Samsung representative did not immediately return a request for comment Friday. AP
