The judge overseeing the Apple-Samsung case in San Jose denied Apple’s contention that Samsung’s infringement of its patents was willful, but at the same time she also rejected Samsung’s bid for a new trial.

In the ruling, Judge Lucy Koh said that jury’s $1 billion verdict was supported by the evidence, adding that “the trial was fairly conducted, with uniform time limits and rules of evidence
applied to both sides.”

“A new trial,” Koh said, “would be contrary to the interests of justice.”

For those that want to read the whole ruling, The Verge has posted a PDF.
