Judge: "viewed holistically, Apple’s practice changes undermine the spirit of the injunction"
This is not how law works. If Apple complies with the text of the ruling, it's in compliance. You can't hold anyone in contempt for violating hand-wavy holistic spirits.
If Epic wants to claim that the remedy was insufficient, that's a different appeal.
- redserk 2y agoYour binary take is not how American law works nor has it ever worked that way. Utilizing the intent of the law/ruling is a completely valid school of legal thought that is regularly practiced. If you disagree with it, you may wish to talk to your state legislature about proposing a constitutional amendment barring the practice. But incorrectly claiming how it isn’t how things work won’t change this practice.
