Apple is attempting to preemptively stop the sales of the Samsung Galaxy S III phone in the United States. Tuesday night, Apple filed a motion in its ongoing litigation against Samsung asking for permission from Judge Lucy Koh to add the S III as another product violating unified search (Siri), and patents related to data-tapping in text messages and the browser, such as when a phone number appears on a text or web page and can be tapped to initiate a call. Apple states in the filing that "it is clear that infringement can be shown with respect to these patents based on the current record."
