Background

Sunrez Corp. appealed from a decision of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in case No. 1:21-cv-00568-RTH, where Judge Ryan T. Holte presided.

The Federal Circuit’s judgment identifies Sunrez as the plaintiff-appellant and the United States as the defendant-appellee. Because the court issued only a Rule 36 judgment, the disposition does not describe the underlying dispute, the Claims Court’s reasoning, or the arguments raised on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

The Federal Circuit affirmed the judgment of the Court of Federal Claims under Federal Circuit Rule 36.

The per curiam disposition contains no written opinion or explanation of the panel’s reasoning. It is designated nonprecedential.

Key Takeaways

  • The Court of Federal Claims’ judgment remains in effect.
  • The Federal Circuit resolved the appeal through a Rule 36 affirmance without a written opinion.
  • The disposition is expressly designated nonprecedential.

Why It Matters

The judgment ends this Federal Circuit appeal in the United States’ favor while providing no substantive appellate analysis for litigants to apply in other cases.

Because the disposition is nonprecedential and does not explain the underlying facts or legal issues, no broader doctrinal holding can reliably be drawn from it.
