This latest ruling does not impact Apple on a nationwide basis. Previously, another local court in Shijiazhuang, ruled in Proview's favor. Proview can still file injunctions in other local courts.
Reuters reported that a source said the Shanghai Pudong New Area People's Court ruled in Apple's favor. According to Chinese news source Sina, the court case will likely move from the local courts and go to the national courts in Beijing. This latest ruling does not mean this legal rodeo is over—far from it.
