Amicus briefs back Apple ahead of Supreme Court ruling in Epic case

Ahead of the Supreme Court's October ruling in Apple v. Epic, several organizations filed amicus briefs supporting Apple. Solicitor General John Sauer said violating the "spirit of the injunction" isn't grounds for contempt, though he noted lower courts were right on some design restrictions.

• US Solicitor General backed Apple's arguments on the "spirit of the injunction"
• Sauer said the 27% commission on external purchases didn't violate the injunction's text
• Briefs were filed by Washington Legal Foundation, Chamber of Commerce and Chamber of Progress
• The Supreme Court will hear the case in October, with the contempt finding possibly overturned
