Background
Besang Inc. appealed from proceedings against Micron Technology, Inc., Micron Semiconductor Products, Inc., and Micron Technology Texas, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The district-court case was No. 2:23-cv-00028-JRG-RSP and was assigned to Judge J. Rodney Gilstrap.
The Federal Circuit heard and considered the appeal. Its judgment does not describe the underlying claims, the district court’s reasoning, or the specific issues raised on appeal.
The Court’s Holding
The Federal Circuit affirmed the district court’s judgment. The panel issued its decision per curiam under Federal Circuit Rule 36.
Because the court entered a Rule 36 judgment without an accompanying opinion, it provided no written reasoning or issue-specific holding. The disposition was designated nonprecedential.
Key Takeaways
- The district court’s judgment remains in place.
- The Federal Circuit affirmed without a written opinion under Rule 36.
- The nonprecedential judgment does not explain the panel’s reasoning or establish a written rule for future cases.
Why It Matters
The decision ends this appeal with an affirmance but offers practitioners no written analysis of the arguments presented. Its practical significance lies in preserving the district court’s judgment rather than supplying precedential guidance.
