U.S. urges court to let Apple antitrust monitor get back to work

By Jonathan Stempel NEW YORK (Reuters) – The U.S. government on Friday urged a federal appeals court to reject Apple Incs effort to oust a court-appointed monitor for its antitrust compliance, saying the company cannot be trusted to do the job on its own. Apple has been seeking the removal of Michael Bromwich, who was appointed in October by U.S. District Judge Denise Cote in Manhattan, three months after she found Apple liable for conspiring with five publishers to raise e-book prices. On Tuesday, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York temporarily halted Bromwichs work so a three-judge panel could review Apples request to halt his work, potentially for several months, while it fully appeals whether there should be a monitor at all.
