A former judge in the United Kingdom known most recently for forcing Apple (AAPL) to issue a public apology after calling Samsung's (005930) Galaxy Tab an iPad copy, has reportedly been hired by Samsung to join its legal team. Judge Robin Jacob had retired in 2011, but as FOSS Patents explains, ex-judges can still be invited to sit on the bench in the UK, and he presided over the case that ended up in a decision favoring Samsung.
Stay classy.
