Judge Again Trims Apple Claims in Microsoft Lawsuit: U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker has further narrowed the scope of Apple’s copyright infringement suit against Microsoft Corp. and Hewlett-Packard, but the long-running case now appears likely to go to trial on June 28. Apple originally claimed that hundreds of elements of Microsoft’s Windows software and H-P’s New Wave program were illegally copied from the Apple Macintosh software, but Walker has thrown out most of those claims. Walker most recently threw out the three remaining Apple claims against Windows, leaving only four elements in New Wave as possibly infringing Apple copyrights.
