We do not ignore the significance of the error of
proceeding to trial in this case while the interlocutory appeal
was pending. Cf. Hickey, 580 F.3d at 927 (admonishing
district courts that divestiture errors can waste tremendous
time and resources, particularly where a case goes to trial);
Claiborne, 727 F.2d at 850–51 (noting that proceeding to trial
before an appellate court has ruled can cause a litigant
irreparable harm). Unlike in Hickey and Claiborne, where
the district court had conducted only pre-trial proceedings
during the relevant time period, see Hickey, 580 F.3d at 927;
Claiborne, 727 F.2d at 851, the district court in this case went
to trial. We nonetheless conclude that the error was harmless
here as well.
