DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 3/1/2024. Emailed notice. 翻译
55
03/01/2024
MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: No remaining Defendant has responded to Plaintiff's motion for entry of default judgment. Accordingly, the motion 48 is granted. Based on the evidence previously submitted by Plaintiff and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, Plaintiff has established that a permanent injunction should be entered. The infringement of Plaintiff's marks irreparably harms Plaintiff and confuses the public. Because this infringement was willful and considering the value of Plaintiff's brand as well as the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the Court concludes that $20,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages against each remaining defendant. Enter Final Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Emailed notice. 翻译

While counsel's effort to comply with the case management procedures after the fact is appreciated, the reminder about noticing motions for presentment in the Court's prior order was included for future reference only.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Before the Court is Plaintiff's Motion for Entry of Default and Default Judgment against Defendants 1-3, 6, 8-9, 15-16, 19, 22-23, 25-26, 28, 31-34, 36-40 48, which the Court construes as a motion for entry of default judgment only, because default has already been entered 47. Any objections to the motion for entry of default judgment by the defaulted Defendants must be filed on or before 2/7/24. If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining affected Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. For the final time (see 37 & 47), counsel is reminded that all motions must be noticed for presentment before Judge Hunt in accordance with her case management procedures. Future failure to comply will result in motions being summarily denied. Emailed notice. 翻译

01/18/2024
MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for entry of default 45 against the remaining defendants identified in Second Amended Schedule A 20 numbered 1-3, 6, 8-9, 15-16, 19, 22-23, 25-26, 28, 31-34, and 36-40 (the "Defaulting Defendants"). The Defaulting Defendants have failed either to plead or to otherwise appear to defend against this action. Accordingly, default against the Defaulting Defendants is entered under Rule 55(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. By 2/9/24, Plaintiff is ordered to file any motions for default judgment. Plaintiff is ordered to serve a copy of this default order on Defaulting Defendants and file a certificate of service. Counsel is reminded that all motions must be noticed for presentment in accordance with Judge Hunt's case management procedures. Emailed notice. 翻译

MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction 32 is taken under advisement. A telephonic motion hearing is set for 12/14/23, at 9:45 AM. Attorneys/parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 877-336-1828, Access Code: 4082461. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting court proceedings. The motion may be considered unopposed as to any Defendant who does not file an objection by 12/13/23, and/or appear at the telephonic hearing. For the reasons stated in the Court's initial order entering the TRO 23 and the order extending the TRO 31, the TRO is extended to and including the date the Court adjudicates the motion for a preliminary injunction. See H-D Mich., LLC v. Hellenic Duty Free Shops S.A., 694 F.3d 827, 843-45 (7th Cir. 2012). Because this extension exceeds the maximum duration for a TRO under Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b), this extension "becomes in effect a preliminary injunction that is appealable, but the order remains effective." Id. at 844. Plaintiff must serve a copy of this minute order upon all affected Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and promptly file proof of that service. Emailed notice. 翻译

11/06/2023
MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's amended ex parte motion for entry of a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery 22, motion for electronic service of process 10, and ex parte motion for expedited discovery 11 are granted. Plaintiff's original ex parte motion for entry of a temporary restraining order and other relief 12 is terminated as moot. 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 $10,000 bond is sufficient to secure the injunctive relief. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. Emailed notice. 翻译

10/13/2023
MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: The Court has reviewed Plaintiff's Amended Complaint 15 adding allegations about defendants' interrelatedness (e.g., 48) and the sealed Amended Schedule A 16 reducing the number of defendants from 352 to 87. While plaintiff's efforts are appreciated, the Court still questions whether speculation about shared unique identifiers and similar irregularities justifies permissive joinder of 87 defendants under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20. Accordingly, this case is set for a telephonic status hearing on 10/19/23, at 9:45 AM. Attorneys/Parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 877-336-1828, Access Code: 4082461. Members of the public and media may call in to listen to the hearing.

09/25/2023
MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Upon review of the Complaint 1, the Court questions whether joinder of 352 defendants is appropriate in this case. Plaintiff alleges that Plaintiff is the owner of a registered trademark of a "stylized and abstract heart-shaped design" and registered copyrights for two images of designs which "depict a cat with an elongated tail, including the trademark design affixed to the center of the cat (hereinafter referred to as "the Long Tail Cat Image")." (Dkt. No. 1 at 2-3; Exs. 1 & 2). Plaintiff filed this trademark and copyright infringement suit against 352 online retailers who are allegedly selling unauthorized products based on a variety of Plaintiff's trademarked and copyrighted images. (Id. at 3). The Complaint alleges that Defendants have created numerous internet stores that "share unique identifiers, such as design elements and similarities of the infringing products offered for sale, establishing a logical relationship between them and suggesting that Defendants' illegal operations arise out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences." (Id. at 4). In addition, the Complaint alleges that the "Infringing Products offered for sale by the Defendant Internet Stores bear similar irregularities and indicia of being counterfeit to one another, suggesting that the Infringing Products were manufactured by and come from a common source and that Defendants are interrelated[,]" and, on information and belief, that "Defendants, either individually or jointly, operate one or more e-commerce stores[,]" "Defendants are in constant communication with each other. [,]" "Defendants are an interrelated group of infringers and counterfeiters[,]" and "Plaintiff's investigation shows that the telltale signs of an illegal counterfeiting ring are present in the instant action." (Id. at 7-10). Although the Complaint and attachments total 170 pages, those are the only allegations offered to establish a connection between all the defendants. Such conclusory and speculative statements, however, do not satisfy the principles described in Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). Accordingly, Plaintiff is ordered to file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder by 10/10/23. Alternatively, by the same date, Plaintiff is granted leave to file an amended complaint with a smaller subset of defendants that includes specific allegations supporting joinder. Plaintiff's Motion for Electronic Service of Process Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3) 10, Ex Parte Motion for Expedited Discovery, and Incorporated Memorandum of Law 11, and Ex Parte Motion for Entry of a Temporary Restraining Order, Including a Temporary Injunction, a Temporary Asset Restraint and Expedited Discovery and Incorporated Memorandum of Law 12 are taken under advisement until the joinder issue is resolved.
