三星(Samsung)可能被迫修改其智能手機運行的軟件，以繼續在美國銷售，此前一上訴法庭賦予蘋果(Apple)一項禁止令，蘋果曾在2023年的專利訴訟中擊敗三星。
In a significant legal victory for the iPhone maker, a majority ruling by the US federal circuitcourt of appeals said that the “public interest strongly favours an injunction on the use ofcertain phone features.
對于蘋果而言，這是一場重大的訴訟勝利，美國聯邦上訴巡回法庭以多數票裁決，“公共利益強烈傾向于對某些手機功能的使用“執行禁止令。
“The right to exclude competitors from using one’s property rights is important, JudgeKimberly Moore wrote in Thursday’s ruling. “And the right to maintain exclusivity — a hallmarkand crucial guarantee of patent rights deriving from the constitution itself — is likewiseimportant.
“不讓競爭對手使用自己的知識產權的權利是重要的，法官金伯利槧爾(Kimberly Moore)在周四的裁決中寫道，“保持專有性(這是憲法規定的專利權的特點和重要保證)也一樣重要。
However, one of the three judges disagreed, siding with the original judgment by DistrictJudge Lucy Koh that Apple failed to show that Samsung’s copying of “minor features of theiPhone, such as sliding to unlock the homescreen, caused “irreparable harm to its sales.

That dissent may provide hope for Samsung that it can win an appeal in a higher court. TheSouth Korean electronics company called the injunction “unfounded, saying it had “investedheavily in innovative mobile technology for decades.
這一不同意見可能會給三星帶來希望：三星可能在更高一級法庭贏得上訴。這家韓國電子設備公司稱禁止令“毫無根據，并表示幾十年來三星已對創新移動技術“投入巨資。
If Samsung does not win an appeal, it may have to tweak the software even in recent devicessuch as its latest Galaxy S6 by the end of the year.
如果三星沒有贏得上訴，那么該公司可能必須在年底之前修改其智能手機軟件，甚至包括最近推出的手機，例如最新款Galaxy S6。
