ICLE President Geoffrey A. Manne is mentioned in this Law360 article on the Ninth Circuit’s refusal to stay a court order against Apple, in the ongoing Epic Games litigation over App Store antitrust practices. Read the full article here.
Epic had opposed Apple’s bid for a stay, arguing that there was no reason to prolong Apple’s ability to continue to collect profits from the allegedly supracompetitive activity. And multiple third parties filed amicus curiae briefs supporting Epic, including Spotify USA Inc. and a group of antitrust professors. Meanwhile, the International Center for Law & Economics filed an amicus brief backing Apple.
