Apple did not have to wait long for a new Supreme Court conference date. Originally scheduled for the court’s February 19 conference, which was cancelled after Justice Scalia’s death, and then briefly in limbo, Apple’s request to have their appeal heard will now be taken up at the court’s next conference session on Friday, March 4. (The results of the conference are generally announced on or before the following Monday.) For perspective, note that over 100 cases are on the Court’s conference calendar — including a second one involving Apple (part of their longstanding litigation with Samsung).
