Introduction to the First Lawsuit on AppStore Promotion Dispute Judged in China
Abstract:
(By You Yunting) In today’s post, we would introduce you the first dispute concerning AppStore promotion dispute judged in China. Where only one party possesses relevant evidence but refuses to provide it to the opposing party, and such evidence would generally be considered unfavorable to the interests of the party possessing it, in most cases the court would support the opposing party’s request for the evidence and determine what adverse consequences the withholding party will bear as a result. A contract dispute involving the promotion of Apple’s Appstore will be discussed in today’s post. In this case, we saw a party fail to provide a correct iTunes Connect account, which the court later discovered, leading to a rejection of the party’s claim.
