Apple and Samsung seem to have come to some sort of legal ceasefire by issuing a joint statement citing that "Apple and Samsung have agreed to drop all litigation between the two companies outside the United States." So, while this means ongoing cases in the US will proceed, litigation in other countries is over. Apple and Samsung have been said to be considering out of court settlements and this mutual understanding could be a result of these talks. Samsung is a long-time supplier of components for Apples mobile iOS products as well as it's Mac computers.
