Case Explained: 25-1557: SCHINDLER v. SQUIRES [RULE 36 JUDGMENT], Nonprecedential

Court: United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

Filed: 2026-07-17

The federal-circuit court affirmed the judgment of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in a civil intellectual property case. The decision was issued as a nonprecedential per curiam opinion pursuant to Federal Circuit Rule 36, which applies when the court determines that no precedential value is added by a written opinion explaining the reasoning. Consequently, the district court’s ruling stands without further elaboration from the appellate court, and the appellant’s appeal is denied.
