Apple has been ordered by a judge to produce 1.3 million documents related to changes made to its App Store in January, despite the company's request for more time. The deadline is set for Monday, stemming from Apple's legal battle with Epic Games that resulted in the initial changes.
Apple , the most valuable company in the world, will have to work this weekend to meet a legal deadline on Monday. That’s after Magistrate Judge Thomas S. Hixson on Friday denied the company’s request for more time to produce 1.3 million documents related to App Store changes it made in January to comply with a 2021 court order.
Your Honor, may I ask time parameter for the Court’s request. > THE COURT: All. > MR. Thank you, Your Honor. > THE COURT: So let’s say from the day that my decision came out until the present.” Hixson required Apple to use search strings that Epic had proposed for gathering the documents. He also required both companies to produce status reports every two weeks until the documents were submitted. It wasn’t until Thursday’s report that Apple asked for more time to review the documents because it originally estimated it would only need to produce 650,000 of them.
