Apple slapped with $2 billion federal lawsuit over Apple Watch

A Detroit woman has filed a federal lawsuit claiming Apple stole her patented idea for a smart watch. “I was the first to put in for a patent for a ‘computer wrist watch,’” Daisy Washington-Gross said in the suit filed Friday in Eastern Michigan U.S. District Court.

Washington-Gross claims Apple’s watch infringed on her pending patent for the “Detachable Beeper Disc Digital Gym Shoe Computer Watch.” She’s demanding $2 billion.
