Late Friday, the Federal Circuit released two nonprecedential orders, one dismissing an appeal and one affirming a district court and remanding in light of the Supreme Court’s reversal of the Federal Circuit’s judgment. This morning, the Federal Circuit released a nonprecedential opinion affirming a decision of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. The court also released a nonprecedential order dismissing a petition for review of a decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board. Here are the introductions to the opinion and the order on remand from the Supreme Court, along with links to the dismissals.
