NFLPA collusion law suit overturned by appeal (salary cap)

Today the 8th circuit of appeals overturned Judge Doty's decision that the NFLPA waited too long to file the collusion report and the new CBA nullified the collusion case.

I have a few questions on this result:
1) What are the chances this gets to the discovery phase forcing the NFL to release internal communication.
2) Will the teams only be able to go after financial compensation, or will the be able to fight for competitive compensation (extra cap room, draft picks, etc.)
3) The article says this goes back to Judge Doty's courtroom? Why wouldn't you bring a new judge into the equation. This wasn't a jury trial, thus Doty may have more of an agenda then a fresh judge.
