Apple should have paid state taxes on the full price of iPhones sold at discounted prices through wireless carriers over a three-year period at its retail stores in Maine, the state supreme court has ruled, according to a WGME report.

The Maine Supreme Judicial Court unanimously overturned a judge’s decision that sided with Apple after the state tax assessor argued that taxes were underpaid by tens of thousands of dollars. An audit found that Apple owed more than $430,000 in sales taxes and more than $100,000 in fines from May 2010 through April 2013.

WGME says an attorney for Apple declined to comment.
