According to the Union-Tribune, Apple’s lawyers have dismissed the possibility of a settlement between the two companies that would avert a trial. Qualcomm had hoped to go to court in February, but US District Judge Gonzalo Curiel set the April date, noting the complexity of the situation, and to “accommodate the court’s schedule.”
The lawsuit is the latest dustup between Qualcomm and Apple, which began in January 2017 when Apple sued the chipmaker over withheld funds. This latest lawsuit came in September, in which Qualcomm accused Apple of stealing technology and providing it to Intel.
