This morning, the Federal Circuit released four nonprecedential orders. One order summarily affirmed a judgment of the Court of Federal Claims; one order denied a petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to vacate an order transferring a patent case from the Northern District of Illinois to the Eastern District of Texas; and two orders dismissed appeals. Here is selected text from the summary affirmance and denial of the petition and links to the dismissals.
