Supreme Court to Review Contempt Ruling Against Apple in Epic Games Case

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear Apple's bid to escape being found in contempt ​in its legal fight with "Fortnite" maker Epic Games after the iPhone maker was deemed in violation of a ‌judicial order mandating sweeping changes to its lucrative App Store in the antitrust litigation. The justices took up Apple's appeal of a lower court's ruling upholding a decision by Oakland, California-based U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers finding Apple in contempt in Epic's 2020 lawsuit contesting App Store fees.
