Because the legal system is low moving even when major corporations aren’t trying to delay things and you can bet that Apple did everything they could to slow down enforcement. I’m surprised it only took 4 years.

Rogers also says that Apple “willfully” chose not to comply with her previous injunction from her original 2021 ruling
Why did it take them 4 years to enforce their own ruling?

All of that takes place during the trial, not after.

Apple has $50B+ in literal cash. Epic’s entire revenue is under $7B/yr. Apple can afford to run Epic for decades on their cash reserves alone without impacting their bottom line.
That’s why it took 4 years. I’m surprised Apple didn’t bury them.

I don’t understand what that has to do with anything? It doesn’t cost either of them anything to enforce a ruling the court already made.

To be clear, I’m not defending anyone here…
Apple likely delayed it multiple times.

They delayed the enforcement of a ruling? I don’t think even they have that power.
