Apple Appeals eBook Case

You might recall that Apple was found guilty of fixing eBook prices and was facing the heavy hand of the law. Not so fast. Apple has filed notice to appeal as many expected that they would:

A “notice of appeal” document was filed by Apple attorney Orin Snyder Thursday to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, and it posted in a public electronic records system Friday. The appeal seeks to overturn Judge Denise Cote’s ruling in the Southern District of New York, as well as an injunction that requires Apple to modify its agreements with book publishers and hire an external monitor for two years.

That will likely delay a trial for damages that was set for May of next year. It will likely also result in lawyers getting very rich as well.
