UK tribunal: App Store class action seeking up to $1.8b can continue
A UK tribunal has agreed that a Collective Proceedings Order potentially involving 19.6 million consumers in the country can go ahead in a case that could cost Apple up to £1.5 billion .At issue are Apple's App Store restrictions, which the vendor says are necessary for safety and quality control purposes but which the filing alleges are anticompetitive.
"] alleges that Apple has foreclosed all competition from potential or actual rivals through its restrictive terms and conditions, and other restraints, imposed in the iOS, so that it is dominant in app distribution and payment services." Apple, as one would expect, fervently disagrees with all of this"and has applied to strike out or alternatively for summary judgment in relation to the excessive pricing aspect of the claim."
The initial filing was made on May 11, 2021 and the strike-out and summary judgement applications were heard together on May 4 and 5, 2022.
