I don't think federal circuit rulings on non patent matter are binding precedent anywhere? I could be wrong about that. I certainly doubt there binding precedent on just one federal district (and not either all the district courts in the relevant circuit, or all district courts period).

Yeah, the CAFC rulings aren't precedent in the circuit courts were this would normally be appealed.
