San Francisco (AP) -Google is an attempt on Monday to persuade the three judges to overturn the three judge’s decisions to overse the JU’s judge to declare the Android smartphone App Store as illegal monopoly. He went to the court and blocked the penalties imposed by the federal judge. Wrongdoing. Epic Games, a video game maker that brought the case of Google’s Play Store, abused the strangling of the Android app market.
In a 9th -hour presentation in San Francisco’s 9th round, Google lawyer Jessica Erasworth, a judge whose company coaches a one -month trial in 2023 in that case. I explained why I believe it is properly allowed. A similar anti -trading test that rotates around Apple’s anti -trading test in 2021.
Erzworth also argued that Google agreed to the process and demanded that the judge would decide on a lawsuit, as in Apple’s trial, first, that JU should not be determined.
Epic, a popular FORTNITE video game manufacturer, submitted an antitrust case separately to Apple and Google on the same day in August 2020, and reached the top with a dramatic different result. Unlike the JU judge of Google’s trial in San Francisco, the U.S. Judge IVonne Gonzales Rogers is an abolition of 185 abolition, defined as Play Store and Apple’s iPhone App Store as part of the wider competitive market. I mainly held Apple.
Elsworth told Appeal Court that the U.S. James James James Donato had inappropriately allowed Epic to change the Google Trial into a “do”.
“(In the case of Apple), we lose the problem that filed a complete lawsuit for the first time, and we can’t pretend to not happen,” said Elsworth. She has stated that Google and Apple have competed for two operating systems that, in effectively enhancing all of the world’s smartphones, “in the field” and “sufficiently” in the app market.
However, Apples judge has a product definition separately to create something that is known as a “garden surrounded by walls” because Apple bundles all software and iPhone together. I believed that the App Store case could be different. Please play various smartphone makers.
“There are obviously some de facto differences between Android World and Apple World,” said Danielle J. Forcerth Judge, Judge EllsWorth.
Judge Gabriel Sanchez was also skeptical about Google’s claim that the trial was compiled in inappropriate market definitions.
“Even if Google competes vigorously with Apple (smartphone operating system), it does not mean that you cannot create another ecosystem that is an exclusive person.”
The magnificent lawyer Gary Bonestein desperately maintains Google’s debate to maintain a system to increase Google’s profits by 15 % to 30 % in -app purchases from software downloaded from Play Store. I drew it as an unfounded effort.
The penalties imposed by Donato in October and later postponed will be postponed while Google pursues the appeal, so that the entire Library of the PLAY STORE application can be used by potential competitors. Includes a series of drastic changes.
The appeal court does not set a timeline to make a judgment in the playist case, but usually takes several months to reach the decision.
Google is currently facing other potential penalties, including being forced to sell Chrome Web Browser after judge in another anti -trading test that the Yubikitas search engine is also illegal monopoly. ใ
In a two -hour hearing on Monday, Bone Stein argued that Google did not try to define the method presented during the Android app market during the trial, and JU’s judge to three judge panels. I remembered that it was necessary to set the bar high before the group was reversed. A punishment ordered by a lower court judge.
“The benefits of the suspicion do not go to the misconduct,” said Bone Stein.
The judge said that Google would stick to the JU trial just before the magnificent trial, which resolved the lawsuit filed by the Match Group, a famous app developer in the United States, has changed. Donato’s decision seemed to be more troubled. When the match case with the Justice was combined with the EPIC case, the JU trial was reached, but Google has resolved some claims only for being rejected by Donato, and then determined to the judge. I wanted to return to what I did.
At one point during the Bone Stein presentation, Forest openly thought of the decision to declare a ruling equivalent to the advisory JU referee and a decision to send a lawsuit to Donat for a longer judgment.
This is an approach that Elsworth likes, and the judge’s ruling in the Apple App Store case has nearly 200 pages, and the Google Trial JU is “Eight questions and” 14 words that define related markets. I provided it. “
However, Bornstein appealed to the appeal court to give Google a “homework assignment” to give time to gain profit from illegal activities.
