Yesterday we heard that Proview, the company who are suing Apple in China for using their iPad trademark had attempted to get the iPad banned in Shanghai.
Now it would appear that the court in Shanghai has rejected the case between Proview and Apple, and wont be banning sales of Apple’s iPad in Shanghai despite Proview’s request.
The Shanghai court has said that it has suspended proceedings by Proview against Apple, until a ruling is made in the main case between the two companies.
The main case is taking place in the Guangdong provincial High Court in China, and we will have to wait and see what the outcome is, and whether or not the Chinese court decides whether the sale of the iPad patents to Apple by Proview included the patent for China.
