#53868 RE: piratica #53867

For the first appeal (#13-1307), where the briefs have all been submitted and oral arguments already made, and we are just waiting for a decision: Could be any day. While a decision could come soon, it could also take months longer. Nobody knows when we will hear from CAFC.

For the next appeal (#14-1233), which was appeals #2 and #3 consolidated, we are still at the briefing stage... GOOG submitted its final reply brief two days ago (on July 21st) and that document is not yet public as it is showing as restricted on PACER. In the near future, CAFC should be scheduling an oral argument hearing for this next appeal. Afterward, the parties will once again wait indefinitely for CAFC to make a decision and nobody knows how fast/slow they will do so.

And after each appeal receives a decision, the parties will have an opportunity to submit petitions for further review (en banc, scotus, etc.) and we will have no idea when those petitions will be responded to... it's just a long waiting game.

...when are we to hear from the appeals court?
