Statement of Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller

The U.S. Supreme Court today declined to hear the Microsoft case on direct appeal from the Federal District Court.

Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller, leader of the 19-State Microsoft Working Group, commented:

"We are disappointed that the Supreme Court declined to hear arguments in the Microsoft case at this time. We continue to believe that prompt and final resolution of this case is in the public interest, and that the Supreme Court is the most appropriate forum for that resolution. Nevertheless, we look forward to presenting our case to the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit."
