NEW YORK, Feb 10 (Reuters) – Apple Inc on Monday

lost its latest bid to put a court-appointed antitrust monitor

on hold after a federal appeals court rejected its argument that

his work was causing irreparable harm to the company.

In a brief order, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in

New York said that monitor Michael Bromwich may continue to

examine Apple’s antitrust compliance policies while the company

pursues a broader appeal seeking to remove him altogether.

U.S. District Judge Denise Cote installed Bromwich in

October, three months after she found Apple liable for

conspiring with five publishers to raise e-book prices.
