Not according to this article (which I guess could be wrong):
> The Federal Circuit denied the transfer by relying on one of its[i.e., the Federal Circuit's] precedents from 1990.
> ...the high court's own precedent from 1957 held that patent suits are governed by a specific law allowing suits only where defendants are incorporated.
SCOTUS didn't change its mind. It overturned/"smacked down" the Appeals Court's 1990 decision.
