PER CURIAM.
UNILOC USA   v. MICROSOFT                               2

                        ORDER

     A combined petition for panel rehearing and rehear-
ing en banc was filed by Plaintiffs-Appellants, and a
response thereto was invited by the court and filed by
Defendant-Cross Appellant. The court granted leave to
file a brief amici curiae to ten damages experts, all ap-
pearing pro se.
    The petition for panel rehearing was considered by
the panel that heard the appeal, and thereafter the peti-
tion for rehearing en banc, response, and brief amici
curiae were referred to the circuit judges who are author-
ized to request a poll of whether to rehear the appeal en
banc. A poll was requested, taken, and failed.
   Upon consideration thereof,
   IT IS ORDERED THAT:
    (1) The petition of Plaintiffs-Appellants for
    panel rehearing is denied.
    (2) The petition of Plaintiffs-Appellants for
    rehearing en banc is denied.
    (3) The mandate of the court will issue on May 23,
2011.
