No, that is not a part of this trial. The SFC is a customer of Vizio, if they weren't they would not have had any kind of standing. The novelty is that a company who buys RHEL and redistributes it might be able to sue IBM if they then refuse future contracts.
As it stands today, only Linus or other Linux copyright holders could sue. End users have never tried before.
