“The Netherlands courts have jurisdiction to hear a representative action concerning the alleged anticompetitive conduct of Apple in relation to its App Store aimed at the Netherlands market,” the EU court said in a statement on the preliminary ruling in Luxembourg on Tuesday.
Cupertino, California-based Apple argued against the jurisdiction of the Dutch court to hear this case, as the alleged harmful conduct had not occurred in the Netherlands and in particular in Amsterdam.
Apple declined to comment on the ruling.
