Next Monday Apple Will Attempt to Overturn Its Ebook Pricing Conviction
Monday, December 15th, 2014, they'll all meet and have another go at things. Publishers Weekly has the details.
If you’ve lost track, you’re not alone—there’s been a lot of legal wrangling over the last year. But Monday’s hearing is the main event: this is Apple’s appeal of Judge Denise Cote’s 2013 liability finding, in which the company was found to have conspired with five major publishers (Hachette, HarperCollins, Macmillan, Penguin, and Simon & Schuster) to artificially inflate the e-book prices.
But even after the decision by the circuit court, the case could drag on. The settlement agreement allows the parties to appeal all the way to the Supreme Court an the full appeal process could take years.
We are not amazed.
