23 2024-12-10 NOTICE of Motion by Justin R. Gaudio for presentment of motion for miscellaneous relief[20], motion for leave to file[3], motion for temporary restraining order[15] before Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 12/17/2024 at 10:00 AM.
24 2024-12-10 MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal [3] is granted. Schedule A to the Complaint [2], Amended Schedule A to the Amended Complaint [12], and the forthcoming Exhibit 4 to the Declaration of Zach Belanger may be filed and shall remain under seal until further order of the Court. Emailed notice.
25 2024-12-11 MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's ex parte motions for entry of a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, expedited discovery [15] and electronic service of process pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3) [20] are granted. Plaintiff's written submissions establish that if defendants were informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, assets would likely be redirected, defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping the infringement, and obtaining an accounting. The Court finds that (1) the submitted evidence establishes a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois); (2) the harm to plaintiff is irreparable and cannot be fully compensated by money damages; (3) an injunction is in the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit goods and infringement interferes with Plaintiff's ability to control its intellectual property; and (4) there is no countervailing harm to defendants from an order directing them to stop infringement. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it is an effective way to communicate with these online marketplace defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and implement the asset freeze. If any defendant were to appear and object, the Court will revisit the asset freeze, joinder, and personal jurisdiction. A $1,000.00 bond is sufficient to secure the injunctive relief. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. No appearance is necessary on 12/17/24. Emailed notice.
