Google Inc., responding to a jury verdict that found its partner Samsung Electronics Co. infringed Apple Inc. patents, said most of the claims “don’t relate to the core Android” software used in mobile devices.

“The court of appeals will review both infringement and the validity of the patent claims,” Mountain View, California-based Google said in an e-mailed statement yesterday. “Most of these don’t relate to the core Android operating system, and several are being re-examined by the U.S. Patent Office.”
