VirnetX Holding Corp (VHC)

I'm not sure I agree. My understanding is that Apple already asked the Appeals court to step in and they declined to. The only other step I can see is Apple asking SCOTUS to step in, but I doubt very strongly they would grant cert. Would these "Mangrove IPRs" be a different issue that wasn't part of Apple's ask of the Appeals court back in February? There's a lot of issues and suits going on here: I read an interview with one of the attorneys for VHC that patent validity issues were somehow estopped, so why would the issues re: IPRs even matter for the purpose of this case?
