MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff filed an amended complaint with fewer defendants on 12/15/2025. Although the Amended Complaint lists a single defendant, it then asserts that the defendant is d/b/a three separate aliases, without explaining how those aliases are related. By 12/30/2025, plaintiff shall file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder of the 3 aliases in light of the principles described in Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint with a single defendant or a smaller subset of defendants along with its memorandum explaining specifically why each defendant is properly joined to all of the others. Estee Lauder, 334 F.R.D. at 189. Mailed notice |
