Proview International Holdings Ltd., seeking to block shipments of Apple Inc.’s iPad tablet computer in and out of China, separately asked a court in California to stop the U.S. company from using IPAD trademarks.
A December 2009 agreement in which a Proview unit agreed to sell IPAD trademarks to Apple’s IP Application Development Ltd. should be canceled, Proview said in a Feb. 17 filing to the California Superior Court in Santa Clara. IP Application made “false” statements to Proview in correspondence before the agreement, the filing said.
