Apple Accuses Microsoft of Using Epic in Legal Attack

Apple injected a new level of intrigue in its bitter court fight with Epic Games, suggesting the Fortnite maker was acting as a stalking horse for Microsoft and withholding evidence.

"Microsoft shielded itself from meaningful discovery in this litigation by not appearing as a party or sending a corporate representative to testify."
