(Reuters) -A U.S. judge on Tuesday denied Apple Inc's efforts to pause orders handed down after an antitrust case brought by "Fortnite" creator Epic Games.

The iPhone maker immediately said it would appeal the denial, aiming to stave off potentially significant changes to its lucrative App Store before a Dec. 9 deadline to implement the court's orders.
