District Court
Holding
On the parties' agreement, the court dismissed cross-appeal No. 2026-1287 under Fed. R. App. P. 42(b), with each side bearing its own costs for that appeal. It also revised the official caption for the remaining appeal, No. 2026-1271. No merits issue was decided.
Why It Matters
This is a housekeeping order with no substantive patent ruling. It shows only that one cross-appeal in the Vidstream/Twitter dispute ended by agreement while the remaining appeal continues.
