Apple scored a partial victory Tuesday in a German court in its battle with Samsung over tablet computers, gaining a declaration that Samsung cannot sell the 7.7-inch version of its Galaxy Tab series anywhere in the European Union.<\/p>\n

US-based Apple accuses the South Korean company of copying the look and feel of its best-selling iPad. Apple was appealing after losing its case in February in a German state court. The companies are at odds worldwide over patents and legally registered designs<\/p>\n
