Apple Files Reply in Florida Action Re Apple's Motion to Dismiss or Transfer Venue

By Pamela Jones et al.

Apple has filed its reply to Psystar's Response [PDF] to Apple's motion to dismiss or transfer venue [PDF]. Is that sentence clear? To amplify, Apple filed a motion to dismiss or to transfer venue in Florida, where Psystar had filed a case against Apple midstream in the California action, and Apple wants it either brought to an end or if not, sent to California.

All that is on the table in Florida is the issue about Rebel EFI, and in Psystar's dreams its reheated antitrust accusations, but Apple wants this all to be over or at least not to have to keep travelling to Florida to finish the farce, and so it tells the judge in Florida about the recent ruling in California on December 15, ordering a permanent injunction against Psystar, which, in Apple's view, reinforces and confirms that "this case should be dismissed or transferred to the Northern District of California."

Apple gives the court a real earful about what Psystar has been doing and accuses Psystar of misrepresentations to the Florida court in its filing.
