Former Apple CEO Contacted Samsung to Fix Patent Row - International Business Times

Former Apple Chief Patent Counsel Richard Lutton told the Sydney Federal Court on Thursday that ex-Apple Chief Executive Officer Steve Jobs personally contacted Samsung in 2010 to fix their patent row. Lutton told Justice Annabelle Lutton that prior to the legal dispute, Apple had a deep business relationship with Samsung. Jobs' initiative sought to avoid a messy legal battle with Samsung which is Apple's supplier, and to avoid potential parts supply problem for Apple's iPad.
