anuseems Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Chinese authorities looking into alleged antitrust violations by Microsoft have given the company twenty days to "make a written explanation" to questions and concerns raised by investigatorsFrom Neowin:In the last few weeks, Chinese authorities have conducted two raids on Microsoft offices and facilities across the country, as part of an investigation into alleged antitrust violations by the company. The exact nature of the probe remains somewhat ambiguous, although a recent report indicated that it concerned Microsoft's bundling of Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player with its Windows operating systems.Today, China's State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC) indicated that the investigation was even wider in its scope, encompassing not just Windows, but also Microsoft's Office suite.The SAIC said in a statement that a "special investigation team conducted an anti-monopoly investigation inquiry with Microsoft Vice President Chen Shi (David Chen), and required that Microsoft make a written explanation within 20 days."http://www.neowin.net/news/china-gives-microsoft-twenty-days-to-respond-to-antitrust-inquiry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humble3d Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Usually, a response or answer in Federal actions allows defendants 20 days to respond but an extension to answer or reply is well known and MSFT lawyers know this and use it at will... :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
