(FILES) Photo dated January 11, 2011 shows Tyler (R) and Cameron (L) Winklevoss, founders of social networking website ConnectU, leaving the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in San Francisco after attending a court hearing in a lawsuit against Facebook Inc. and its founder Mark Zuckerberg on in San Francisco. A US appeals court ruled on April 11, 2011 that the Winklevoss twins can't back out of the settlement deal they made in a lawsuit charging that Zuckerberg stole their idea for Facebook. "The Winklevosses are not the first parties bested by a competitor who then seek to gain through litigation what they were unable to achieve in the marketplace," the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals said. "At some point, litigation must come to an end," the judges said. "That point has now been reached." AFP PHOTO/Kimihiro HOSHINO/FILES
