Retailers who don't like the proposed settlement of a longstanding federal case about credit card interchange will have to wait for that case to be finally settled before they can appeal it, according to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

A three-judge panel issued its one-paragraph opinion on Thursday. It reaffirmed a previous opinion from Judge Peter Hall, also an appeals court judge, issued Dec. 10, 2012, which also held that no appeals of the settlement in the interchange case could move forward until a final settlement of that case was filed.
