Both Apple and Samsung, who are in the beginning phases of a month-long patent trial here, were awaiting a decision on what U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh would do about a spat between the two companies stemming from excluded evidence Samsung sent out to press.

Judge Koh put that to the test this morning, bringing jurors out one at a time, asking if they had heard any news about the trial, and re-affirming that they could be fair and impartial.

Most jurors told Koh they hadn't heard anything about it.
