1Opinion of the Court
Opinion for the court filed by Circuit Judge REYNA.
Concurring opinion filed by Circuit Judge DYK.
REYNA, Circuit Judge.
This case requires us to determine whether, based on a final judgment in the United States that a patent is not infringed, a party is entitled to an injunction preventing the patent owner from proceeding in a previously-filed foreign arbitration of a license to that patent. We conclude that under Ninth Circuit law and the facts of this case, the injunction is not warranted. We therefore affirm the district court’s denial of the injunction.
