Samsung Electronics is asking the United States to prohibit Apple from importing key products including the latest iPhone and iPad devices amid an escalating patent dispute.
Samsung filed a complaint with the US International Trade Commission over what it claims are Apple's violation of five patents held by Samsung, the Suwon, South Korea-based company said on Thursday. The complaint was filed on Wednesday.
"The complaint requests relief in the form of a permanent exclusion order prohibiting entry to the United States of all Apple products in violation of these patents," Samsung said in a statement, adding that the items include the iPhone 4, iPad 2 and iPod touch.
Though Apple is a US company, many of its products are assembled in China and exported to the United States.
