Many workstations implemented overlapping windows before the macintosh
was released. The Mac was released in 1984, AFTER Sun's, LISPm's,
Symbolics's, even Alto's, and other types of workstations had
overlapping windows.
There must be some user-interface component (zoom boxes?) more
mac-specific that you aren't telling us about. A legal battle about
overlapping windows is pointless -- Apple will lose.
