Most of the predictions that I have read think that it will go to the Supreme Court and they will hear it.
Apple can not re-file the same appeal except in some special circumstances. That's one reason that Apple's appeal had so many different points, there is no do over, so they had to hit all the possible reasons to overturn.

Ah, thank you for that. You have any opinion, educated guess, as toward Apple's chance in winning in Supreme Court?
If you ask me, they will have a harder time to win than Microsoft did. Have been unable to find any information about it though. Do you have a good source as to prediction that the Supreme Court will hear Apple?
