Samsung denied: Judge Koh declines to lift injunction against Galaxy Nexus, but Google's got a workaround

[![Samsung denied judge declines to lift injunction against Galaxy Nexus][1] ][2]

Happy Independence Day, Apple. _Reuters _reports that Samsung's request to have the [preliminary injunction][3] against the Galaxy Nexus lifted has officially been denied. This follows a similar ruling yesterday, when the Korean firm's plea to have a similar ban on its [Galaxy Tab 10.1][4] also fell on deaf ears. This means that there will be no more Samsung Nexi on store shelves until either a workaround can be implemented or the case is resolved. And, according to _All Things D_, Google and Sammy have already got a workaround ready to go and the software patch implementing it will be pushed out "imminently." So, in actuality, the news isn't _that _bad for Android lovers, but it does put another feather in Apple's legal cap.
