thumbnail Apple, Samsung CEOs agree to mediation in court dispute

The CEOs of Apple and Samsung Electronics will participate in mediation ahead of a March trial in a patent dispute in a federal court in California.

Samsung's Oh-Hyun Kwon and Apple's Tim Cook will attend the mediation with three to four in-house counsel by or before February 19. No outside counsel will attend, according to a joint court filing by the companies' attorneys.

The filing on Wednesday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose division said that senior legal executives from Apple and Samsung met in person on Monday to discuss settlement opportunities, and agreed upon a mediator "who has experience mediating high profile disputes."

The court had ordered the companies on November 13 to submit a proposal regarding settlement discussions before the March 2014 trial, according to the filing.
