Apple has won a court ruling that throws out a $625.5 million
patent-infringement verdict
issued<http://www.macrumors.com/2010/10/04/apple-hit-with-625-million-judgment-in-patent-suit-over-cover-flow-spotlight-time-machine/>
in
October over Cover Flow, Spotlight, and Time Machine technologies.

A federal judge in Tyler, Texas, today said Apple didn’t infringe a patent
owned by Mirror Worlds LLC and closed the case in Apple’s favor. The court
also said the damage award was too high. The judge did uphold the validity
of the three Mirror Worlds patents.
The jury had originally said that Apple was infringing on three patents and
awarded damages of $208.5 million for each patent. Judge Davis agreed with
Apple's argument and closed the case in Apple's favor.
