Class Suit Status Granted against Apple and AT&T

A US District Court came up with a judgment to allow class action certification for a case that has been filed against the AT & T carrier and the software developer Apple. Judge James Ware of the District Court of northern California judged a green signal permitting everyone who has ever bought an iPhone that is in a contract with AT&T to be part of the lawsuit.

The case has been filed that the companies that they are not permitting their customers to get in contact with other network after the exclusive two-year contract with AT&T expires. They will also unlock the units after the stipulated period of contract expires.
“The court has allowed (multiple) plaintiffs to represent 20 million customers who have been forced to use AT&T for iPhone voice and data service, despite an agreement that allows them to terminate at any time and presumably switch carriers,” said Mark Rifkin, attorney for the plaintiffs. AT&T has been the only carrier partner of Apple for the smartphone that was initially launched in 2007
