Yes, they did agree to be bound by the decision, but I thought that included the right to appeal? I guess not, so that is good.

Common sense tells me that they agreed to be bounded by the PTAB decision, and they can appeal the PTAB's decision within the PTAB process that does NOT involve the Court.

Can someone please post the agreement among parties so that we all can discuss/debate/digest such agreement further?

I am not sure about that, I think they said they agreed to be 'bound' by the decision. I can't see a company giving up a right to appeal.

Perhaps dig up the PR?

According to the 35 U.S.C 114(c), any parties to the IPR who is not satisfied with the final written ruling of the PTAB may appeal the PTAB's ruling only to the US Federal Court of Appeals.

Bound by the decision does not necessarily mean giving up the right to appeal. Therefore, absent of any concrete written agreement of not appealing the PTAB's decision, definitely there will be an appeal by either dissatisfied party as allowed per 35 U.S.C 114(c).

Again, I ask everyone here please post the legal document regarding Worlds' and Activision's agreement in this matter
