ITEM 8.01. Other Events.
On April 20, 2011, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., sitting en banc, issued its opinion on EchoStar's appeal from the United States District Court of Texas's decision finding EchoStar in contempt of the District Court's permanent injunction. The Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court's finding of contempt and award of sanctions against EchoStar for failing to comply with the disablement provision of the District Court's permanent injunction against EchoStar. The Court of Appeals separately vacated and remanded for further proceedings the District Court's finding of contempt of the infringement provision of the District Court's permanent injunction, remanded to the District Court for further proceedings in light of a new standard that the Court of Appeals laid out in the opinion, and vacated, in part, the District Court's award of damages for continued infringement. EchoStar has stated that it intends to seek further review by the United States Supreme Court of the Court of Appeals' affirmance of the District Court's permanent injunction with respect to the disablement provision.
