The U.S. Supreme Court issued a one-day temporary stay, allowing Apple to delay submitting its App Store fee proposal.

On August 12 local time, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan issued an administrative stay, temporarily freezing the lower court proceedings in the long-standing antitrust lawsuit between Apple Inc. and Fortnite developer Epic Games in the U.S. District Court for California. This move aims to grant the Supreme Court more time for deliberation to decide whether to approve Apple's request for a long-term pause on further litigation actions in the lower court. However, this temporary stay is only for one day, freezing the litigation process until 5 PM Washington time on the 13th, thereby temporarily exempting Apple from submitting a rate proposal to the district court before the original deadline of the 12th.
