A U.S. Appeals Court has denied Samsung's second attempt to overturn a ban on its Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, reports The Register.
Judge Lucy Koh had already decided that the injunction she ordered wouldn't be put on hold until Samsung completed its appeal against the ban. Now, the Court of Appeals has also decided not to stay the injunction and not to expedite the appeal process.
"Samsung may of course significantly self-expedite the case by filing its own brief early. Samsung, however, has not shown that the time for Apple to file its brief should be shortened," the court said in its ruling.
In order for the ban to be lifted, Samsung will now have to wait for the outcome of the trial that begins July 30th.
