Let S be a prime Noetherian ring and G a finite group acting on 5 such that Gis x-outer on S. We give sufficient conditions for the skew group ring S * Gto be a prime maximal order. If we impose the further hypothesis that the order of Gbe a unit of S, then these conditions are also necessary. Moreover, if S is a commutative Noetherian domain, then there are necessary and sufficient conditions for S*Gto be a prime maximal order, without requiring that the order of G be a unit in S.
