Smith Anderson Represents Antitrust and Civil Procedure Professors in Landmark Case

Epic Games secured a Ninth Circuit victory affirming a district court injunction requiring Apple to reform App Store policies. The appeals court upheld contempt findings against Apple, rejecting the company's compliance arguments regarding its 27% commission on external link purchases and related restrictions. The court ruled Apple acted in bad faith and violated a prior order governing conduct toward app developers. Smith Anderson filed an amicus brief supporting Epic Games, addressing injunctive relief scope and contempt standards in antitrust cases.
