Microsoft Corp will face off against the European Commission on Sept 30 in a European Union court in Luxembourg, seeking a suspension of sanctions against it for several years, the court announced on Tuesday.
The Commission found that Microsoft abused its dominance of PC operating systems and in March ordered the software giant to make changes by mid-June to create a more level playing field for rivals.
Microsoft appealed and asked the Court of First Instance to suspend the sanctions until the case is completed, probably three or more years from now.
