Epic Games opposes Apple’s effort to pause antitrust trial orders

San Francisco: “Fortnite” creator Epic Games on Friday opposed Apple Inc’s efforts to put on hold orders handed down in an antitrust trial as a potentially lengthy appeals process plays out.

US district judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in September struck down some of the iPhone maker’s App Store rules, including a prohibition on developers directing their users to other payment options besides Apple’s in-app payment system, in a partial win for Epic and other app makers.
