All Things D reports that Apple has been granted a preliminary injunction against the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, a huge victory for Apple as it continues its legal efforts to battle what it deems to be flagrant copying of its iOS products by Samsung.

US District Judge Lucy Koh explained in her ruling: “Although Samsung has a right to compete, it does not have a right to compete unfairly by flooding the market with infringing products. While Samsung will certainly suffer lost sales from the issuance of an injunction, the hardship to Apple of having to directly compete with Samsung’s infringing products outweighs Samsung’s harm in light of the previous findings by the Court.”
