The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit dismissed an appeal in a civil dispute between POM Group Inc. and several Schedule A defendants. The dismissal was granted by order of the parties under Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure forty-two, subsection B.
This case arose from an appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, where POM Group Inc. was the plaintiff-appellee and Schedule A Defendants, including Sotiya, Conscious Items, Midnight Fancy, TresseVogue, Ataccommodate.com, and Blaciokamith.com, were defendants-appellants.
The court’s reasoning
The court issued an order stating that the parties had agreed to the dismissal. The proceeding was dismissed under Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure forty-two, subsection B.
What it means going forward
The dismissal resolves the appeal without a decision on the merits, leaving the district court’s prior status in place while requiring each party to pay their own legal costs.
