It’s on appeal. The injunction requiring Apple to change the terms was stayed pending appeal right after the injunction was issued. That is not unusual, btw. Apple lost its appeal before a panel of the 9th Circuit. The only thing it can do now is ask the Supreme Court to hear the case. And in this filing, they are telling the Supreme Court they are going to submit a petition for writ of certiorari (a fancy way of saying please take our case, Supreme Court), so they’re asking the Supremes to “stay the mandate”—-a fancy way of saying please don’t force us to follow the injunction while we prepare our petition to you.
Between when the case was decided and now, Apple has been appealing, as is their right. They have one level left to appeal to. Litigation takes time. this is actually pretty quick in relative terms. Certainly no Jarndyce and Jarndyce.
