Apple Inc., after winning a $1.05 billion jury verdict against Samsung Electronics Co., told a judge that Samsung’s request to lift a ban on U.S. sales of its Galaxy 10.1 Tab computer shouldn’t be considered before Apple’s request to bar some products permanently.

U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose, California, ruled Aug. 29 that Apple’s request for a permanent ban on U.S. sales of eight Samsung mobile devices will be considered at a Dec. 6 hearing. The judge scheduled a hearing on Samsung’s request to lift a preliminary sales ban on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Tab computer for Sept. 20 if she deems it necessary.
