Epic Games has responded to Apple's latest Supreme Court appeals, asserting that Apple's interpretation of the lower courts' decisions is flawed. The ongoing legal dispute, which began with Epic's challenge to Apple's App Store policies, hinges on two main points raised by Apple. First, Apple claims that the anti-steering injunction exceeds the case's scope, and second, it argues that violations should not be judged by the 'spirit' of the law. Epic counters these assertions, emphasizing that the Ninth Circuit's ruling was based on the actual text of the injunction, rather than its spirit. The original injunction was related to Apple's anti-steering practices, which the company was found to have violated by enabling steering through a permission structure. Additionally, Epic disputes Apple's claim regarding the California's Unfair Competition Law (CASA), stating that the Ninth Circuit's ruling does not create an exception to this law. As the legal battle continues, a decision from the Supreme Court is expected by June, which could significantly impact the future of the case.
