NOTICE of Motion by James Edward Judge for presentment of motion for leave to file excess pages[9], motion for leave to file[4], Sealed motion, [10] before Honorable Manish S. Shah on 8/19/2025 at 09:45 AM. |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: No appearance on 8/19/25 is necessary. The motion for excess pages [9] is granted. The motion to file under seal [4] is denied. The motion for an ex parte TRO [10] is denied in part, granted in limited part. The public has a right to know what trademarks are the subject of litigation, and who is filing suit in federal court. For the reasons ex parte relief is inappropriate, sealing defendants' online marketplaces is inappropriate. The clerk shall immediately unseal all filings and correct the caption to reflect that the plaintiff is Reus Research, LLC. The court authorizes early, expedited discovery pursuant to Rules 26(d)(1) and 45 to third parties to provide discovery in aid of identifying defendants and serving process. Upon Plaintiff's request, any third party with actual notice of this Order who is providing services for any of the Defendants, or in connection with any of Defendants' Online Marketplaces shall, within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of such notice, provide to Plaintiff expedited discovery, limited to copies of documents and records in such person's or entity's possession or control sufficient to determine the identities and locations of Defendants, their officers, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, and any persons acting in active concert or participation with them, including all known contact information and all associated e-mail addresses. Plaintiff may provide notice of the proceedings in this case to Defendants, including service of process pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3), and any future motions, by electronically publishing a link to the Verified Complaint, this Order, and other relevant documents on a website and by sending an e-mail with a link to said website to the e-mail addresses known to Plaintiff and any e-mail addresses provided for Defendants by third parties. The Clerk of the Court is directed to issue a single original summons in the name of "The Individuals and all other Defendants identified in the Complaint" that shall apply to all Defendants. The combination of providing notice via electronic publication and e-mail, along with any notice that Defendants receive from payment processors, shall constitute notice reasonably calculated under all circumstances to apprise Defendants of the pendency of the action and afford them the opportunity to present their objections. All other ex parte relief is denied. Any evaluation of the merits or likelihood of success in this case against 371 defendants involving over 2000 pages of exhibits should not proceed without adversarial presentation. The risk that defendants will move assets is not a good reason to proceed ex parte when extraordinary equitable relief like asset restraints are not to be used in aid of collection of damages, and the court doubts plaintiff has any intention to pursue an accounting as opposed to statutory damages. Notices Mailed. |
