Apple Inc. failed again to win a sales ban on Samsung Electronics Co. products found to infringe its smartphone patents, even after requesting what it described as a more limited prohibition.

U.S. District Judge Lucy H. Koh in San Jose, California, today denied Apple’s bid for what the company had pitched as a “narrowly tailored” ban on some older Samsung smartphone models after a jury in May found infringement by both companies.
