Legalese has its own meanings, and so I asked a lawyer what the final decision on Adesk vs SW meant.
When the two agreed that "all other claims and counterclaims are dismissed with prejudice," the with prejudice means that cannot file same claims against each other. They can, however, still file different claims against each other, and they can file the same claims against others.
When they agreed that the "court will enforce the stipulated trademark as against defendant without adjudicating the issue," the lawyer thought this might mean that SolidWorks has given up on using DWG in its trademarks.
