Epic had filed a new appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. Epic asked the Supreme Court to clearly define some aspects of the Antitrust Act in an attempt to avoid Apple’s 30% App Store fee.
However, this also means that Apple can also file a new lawsuit against the final judgment of the two previous lawsuits. Apple has asked the Supreme Court to overturn a lower court ruling requiring the company to make changes to its App Store.
According to Reuters, Apple argued in its latest filing that the 2021 lower court order “ignores constitutional limits on the power of federal courts” because it targeted only one developer rather than a broader group.
The Apple filing continued: “Unless this court amends, the ruling would make general injunctions the default remedy in single-plaintiff cases challenging generally applicable policies.”
