Apple's CEO Tim Cook and SVP of software Craig Federighi are among the  top executives who may be called upon to testify in its trial versus Epic Games. Other executives may include App Store Vice President Matt Fischer, Apple’s former marketing chief and current Apple Fellow Phil Schiller, Apple confirmed.

 

A tentative list of Apple’s witnesses submitted to the court include executives in charge of combating fraud on the App Store, facilitating payments, game development, marketing, and developer relations.

 

Apple's statement read: "We feel confident the case will prove that Epic purposefully breached its agreement solely to increase its revenues, which is what resulted in their removal from the App Store. By doing that, Epic circumvented the security features of the App Store in a way that would lead to reduced competition and put consumers’ privacy and data security at tremendous risk."

 

The executives are expected to testify live and in person and Cook is scheduled for a total of 2 hours and 10 minutes, combining direct examination, cross examination, and re-direct examination. Federighi is listed at a total of 3 hours and 10 minutes, while Schiller, who runs the App Store, will be available for 11 hours, according to the list. For more, read the full Bloomberg report.
