The CEOs of Apple and Samsung, Tim Cook and Kwon Oh Hyun, are expected to have a phone conversation later today in an attempt to settle their ongoing trial before it goes to jury, according to a Bloomberg source. Lawyers for the two companies are then expected to report to the US District Judge overseeing the case, Lucy Koh. The call would be a fulfillment of a request by Koh late last week that the two executives talk; at the time, the judge said she was "pathologically optimistic" that a settlement could be reached.
