Microsoft Software Pricing Lawsuit : Microsoft’s Ongoing Legal Challenges
Microsoft, headquartered in Redmond, Washington, did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the lawsuit. The tech giant is already embroiled in another legal battle in the U.K., where it is defending itself against a £270 million ($355 million) lawsuit brought by software reseller ValueLicensing. This case, also before the Competition Appeal Tribunal, alleges that Microsoft stifled the supply of pre-owned software licenses in the U.K. and the European Economic Area.
Wolfson, who practices at 1 High Pavement Chambers, is represented by counsel from Monckton Chambers and Matrix Chambers. His legal team includes Kate Pollock, Stuart Carson, and Marc Jones from Stewarts Law LLP.
