The First Intermediate People's Court of Shanghai last week started to hear the lawsuit between Apple Inc and local high-tech company Zhizhen Network Technology, which claims that Apple's Siri violates its rights to voice technology called "Xiao i Robot". The Chinese company said that its software was granted invention patent in 2006, and Siri, which debuted in 2011, uses similar technologies. Apple has countered that it should not be subject to Chinese law because the server for Siri is outside China. An attorney for Zhizhen said it may take four or five months for the court to render a judgment.
