The European Commission's Court of First Instance declined the company's request to delay the proceedings in order to give Intel further time to respond.
Intel had initially been given an October deadline to file a response to the anti-trust charges lobbied at the company by AMD.
Shortly after the deadline passed, Intel filed an appeal asking the court to allow the company more time for a response.
The decision opens the door for the EU to go ahead with the antitrust case between the two chipmakers.
The case stems from accusations filed by AMD claiming that over the first half of the decade Intel had illegally offered discounts to vendors who agreed to favor Intel's chips or stop offering systems that contained AMD processors.
Both sides have been locked in off-and on anti-trust battles in courts worldwide over the matter of Intel's competitive practices since 2005.
