This morning, the Federal Circuit released two nonprecedential opinions, one in a patent case appealed from the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and one in a federal personnel case appealed from the Merit Systems Protection Board. The Federal Circuit also released two nonprecedential orders. One denies a petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to order the Western District of Texas to transfer a patent case to the Northern District of California, and the other transfers a case to the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Here are the introductions to the opinions and the first order and a link to the second order.

This morning, the Federal Circuit released three nonprecedential opinions, one summary affirmance, and four orders dismissing appeals. The nonprecedential opinions affirm a judgment of the Court of Federal Claims dismissing a pro se case for lack of jurisdiction, a judgment of the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims affirming a dismissal by the Board of Veterans’ Appeals for lack of jurisdiction, and a judgment of the Merit Systems Protection Board dismissing an appeal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Here are the introductions to the opinions and links to the summary affirmance and dismissals.
