The Supreme Court has rejected the dueling antitrust appeals filed by Apple and Epic in their ongoing lawsuit, effectively granting Apple a pyrrhic victory.

On Tuesday, January 16, the US Supreme Court declined to hear the dueling appeals filed by Apple and Fortnite publisher Epic in their ongoing antitrust dispute. The court justices refused to hear Apple’s appeal in a case challenging its highly lucrative App Store, while also passing on Epic’s lower court appeal regarding Apple’s App Store policies. The justices did not give a reason for their decision to reject the company’s appeals.
