PER CURIAM.

Plaintiffs-Appellants sued Defendants for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 5,628,526 and 5,715,451. Defendants moved to dismiss on ineligibility grounds, and the district court partially granted this motion. Plaintiffs-Appellants and Defendants subsequently settled their dispute and jointly stipulated to dismissal of the case. Plaintiffs- Appellants did not reserve the right to appeal. Accordingly , we dismiss this appeal for mootness pursuant to Aqua Marine Supply v. AIM Machining, Inc., 247 F.3d 1216, 1218–20 (Fed. Cir. 2001).
