Apple sues Chinese government agency, firm over Siri: Report

US technology giant Apple is suing a Chinese government agency and a domestic company over patent
rights for its "Siri" personal assistant, the official Xinhua news agency said Monday. Apple launched the
case against the State Intellectual Property Office, which is in charge of patent rights protection in China,
and Shanghai's Zhizhen Network Technology, which developed software similar to Siri, the report said.

Apple declined to comment to AFP, saying it does not comment on any ongoing litigation.

The US company previously asked the State Intellectual Property Office to declare Zhizhen's voice

recognition patent invalid but the request was declined, prompting the legal action, Xinhua said.

The Beijing Number one Intermediate People's Court will hear the case on Thursday, it added.
