The $290 million verdict is nearly $100 million less than the $380 million Apple sought in the retrial, but far above the $53 million Samsung said it owed.

Judge Koh denied both motions, and the new verdict brings Apple’s total award in the landmark patent dispute is $888 million.
Now just pay up scumbags.
