ICLE Mentioned in Law360 on Apple–Epic Supreme Court Contempt Case
Law360 quoted ICLE in an article on the Justice Department’s partial support for Apple in its Supreme Court dispute with Epic Games. The piece examines whether Apple’s 27% commission on purchases made through external links violated the court’s injunction, and cites ICLE’s amicus brief on Apple’s ability to recover App Store costs.

The firm need not prefer an alternative because it is less profitable, and its decision to compare the financial consequences of available choices is entirely ordinary. The contrary approach would make the sacrifice of revenue a test of obedience even where an injunction imposed no such requirements,” ICLE said, in a brief that also argued that Apple must still be able to recoup its costs from running the App Store and hosting outside apps, even for transactions steered to outside payment options.
