The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit dismissed an interlocutory appeal filed by Timothy Barton regarding a receivership order. The court held that it lacked jurisdiction because the order was not a final decision and did not fall within statutory exceptions for interlocutory review.

The court also granted a partial stay of an enforcement order requiring the Department of Veterans Affairs to process pending grievances under that agreement.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the lower court's judgment in a civil dispute between Perdiemco LLC and Nextraq LLC. The court issued a nonprecedential per curiam order under Federal Circuit Rule thirty-six.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit granted a writ of mandamus to restore a jury trial right for a pharmacy benefit manager. The court held that the public nuisance remedy sought by local governments included legal damages rather than purely equitable relief. The Seventh Amendment therefore entitles the defendant to a jury trial.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit dismissed appeals in a patent dispute after the parties voluntarily withdrew them. The court ordered each side to bear its own costs and denied all pending motions as moot.

The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a district court dismissal of a patent infringement complaint but reversed an award of attorneys fees and a sanction against the plaintiff and its counsel.
