MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the stipulation of dismissal (Dckt. No. 47) for Defendant No. 202 "islobella," which is self-effectuating under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). Defendant No. 202 "islobella" is dismissed. The Court reviewed the joint status report. (Dckt. No. 48) Plaintiff has reached a settlement in principle with the last two remaining defendants, Defendant No. 207 "printsbydpr" and Defendant No. 45 "Funny-company." The parties have executed a settlement agreement and are in the process of facilitating the payment. No other defendants are left. Given that reality, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice as to Defendant No. 207 "printsbydpr" and Defendant No. 45 "Funny-company." The dismissal shall automatically convert to a dismissal with prejudice unless the parties seek and obtain relief from the Court by July 15, 2025. The case is closed. Civil case terminated.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the status report. (Dckt. No. 42) Only three defendants are left, and Plaintiff has now reached a settlement in principle with two of them ("islobella" and "printsbydpr"). The parties must promptly file a stipulation of dismissal. That leaves "Funny-company" as the last defendant standing. Settlement talks are ongoing, and Plaintiff "expects to resolve this matter with Defendant No. 45 Funny-company within the next thirty (30) days." That's not fast enough. The parties must file a status report by June 10, 2025. The Court directs the parties to double-down on settlement talks, intensify their efforts, and make every effort to settle. If the parties have not settled by June 10, then the parties should plan on attending a mandatory in-person settlement conference the following week. Clients will be expected to attend. The Court will not allow telephonic appearances, regardless of where the clients may reside. In the meantime, the parties must focus all of their energies and attention on achieving an amicable resolution. Mailed notice 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Earlier today (meaning on May 30, 2025), this Court issued a minute order with the wrong date. The order required Plaintiff to "file a status report by May 29, 2025." This Court amends that order to say that this Court was ordering Plaintiff to file a status report by June 5, 2025.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion for default judgment as to all remaining Defendants except for Defendants islobella (aka Isabella Galin), Funny-company (aka Emma Vizier), and printsbydpr (aka Jane Vilgats) (Dckt. No. 24) is hereby granted. The responses to the complaint are long overdue. On May 2, 2025, this Court entered default under Rule 55(a) against all Defendants, except for Defendants islobella and Funny-company. All remaining Defendants except for Defendants islobella and Funny-company did not respond to the complaint, or to the entry of default. Defendant printsbydpr did not formally answer the complaint, but reached out to Plaintiff about settling, and later filed an email on the docket (Dckt. No. 21). The motion for default judgment is hereby granted. The Court hereby enters default judgment against all remaining Defendants except for Defendants islobella, Funny-company, and printsbydpr under Rule 55(b). This Court will enter final judgment under Rule 54(b), and finds that there is no just reason for delay. Final Judgment Order to follow. Mailed notice 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the joint status report. (Dckt. No. 36) It says that certain individuals are purporting to bring claims "on behalf of" names that appear to be companies, or maybe pseudonyms. "Isabella Galin has appeared pro se on behalf of Defendant No. 202 'islobella' and filed an answer. Emma Vizier has filed a pro se answer on behalf of Defendant No. 45 'Funny-company. Jane Vilgats submitted an email to the court on behalf of Defendant No. 207 'printsbydpr.'" That's a non-starter. Parties must litigate in their own names, not pseudoynyms. And an individual can't appear pro se on behalf of a corporation. A corporate defendant needs a lawyer. Also, the answer of Isabella Galindo (Dckt. No. 19) does not comply with the Federal Rules, because it does not include a paragraph-by-paragraph response to the complaint. The same is true of the would-be answer of Emma Vizier (Dckt. No. 20), and the email from Jane Vilgats (which seems to be a response to the complaint) (Dckt. No. 21). The answers by Isabella Galindo, Emma Vizier, and Jane Vilgats are hereby stricken. That said, their sales appear to be very modest. And this Court can see no good reason why the claims against them should hang around on the docket. The Court hereby directs Plaintiff to reach out to those three defendants, roll up your sleeves, engage in intensive settlement discussions, and attempt to settle the case with a sense of urgency and purpose that makes President JFK's desire to get to the moon pale in comparison. Plaintiff must file a status report by May 29, 2025. This Court fully expects that Plaintiff will have achieved remarkable progress in that period of time. If the parties have not settled by that point, then this Court will consider possible remedies and strategies for moving things forward, including directing Plaintiff's counsel to travel to meet each Defendant in person for face-to-face settlement talks.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Defendant Jin Zhumao's motion for an extension of time (Dckt. No. 32) is hereby denied. The deadline to answer the complaint was on February 14, 2025. That time came and went, and Defendant Jin Zhumao (among other Defendants) did not answer. So, the Court entered default on May 2, 2025 against all Defendants who had not yet answered the complaint. As previously ordered, the response to the motion for default judgment is due on May 21, 2025. Defendant Zhumao now seeks more time to answer the complaint, but this Court has already entered default under Rule 55(a). So, Defendant would need to file a motion to vacate the entry of default under Rule 55(c), which requires a showing of good cause. A desire for more time, three months after the deadline to file an answer, isn't going to cut it. The Court directs the parties to engage in good faith, energetic settlement discussions. The parties must file a status report on settlement by May 28, 2025. Plaintiff must serve a copy of this order and file a certificate of service. Mailed notice. 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Answers to the complaint were due on February 14, 2025. Two Defendants (Isabella Galin and Emma Vizier) have answered (and it appears one Defendant has emailed both Plaintiff and this Court, expressing her interest in settlement), but the others have not answered. The Court directs the parties to have meaningful, good faith settlement discussions, and file a status report within one week of entry of this order. The parties must file a joint initial status report by that date, too. Plaintiff is not moving the case along for the other Defendants. The Court sua sponte enters default under Rule 55(a) against all Defendants Isabella Galin and Emma Vizier. A motion for default judgment is due by May 9, 2025. A response is due by May 21, 2025. A failure to comply will lead to appropriate relief, including the possible granting of the motion and entry of final judgment. Plaintiff must serve a copy of this order on Defendants and file a certificate of service. Mailed notice 翻译 |

ANNUAL REMINDER: Pursuant to Local Rule 3.2 (Notification of Affiliates), any nongovernmental party, other than an individual or sole proprietorship, must file a statement identifying all its affiliates known to the party after diligent review or, if the party has identified no affiliates, then a statement reflecting that fact must be filed. An affiliate is defined as follows: any entity or individual owning, directly or indirectly (through ownership of one or more other entities), 5% or more of a party. The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: An initial status report is due by November 6, 2024. Counsel must read the Standing Order entitled "Initial Status Conferences and Joint Initial Status Reports" on the Court's website. The parties must confer as required by Rule 26(f) about the nature, scope, and duration of discovery. The parties must submit two documents to the Court. First, the parties must file the Joint Initial Status Report under Rule 26(f) on the docket. A Word version of the Joint Initial Status Report is available on the Court's website. All parties must participate in the preparation and filing of the Joint Initial Status Report. The Court requires a joint report, so a filing by one side or the other is not sufficient. Second, the parties must email a Word version of a proposed Scheduling Order under Rule 16(b) to the Court's proposed order inbox. Lead counsel for the parties must participate in filing the initial status report. Plaintiff must serve this Order on all other parties. If the defendant has not been served with process, plaintiff's counsel must contact the Courtroom Deputy at jessica_j_ramos@ilnd.uscourts.gov to reschedule the initial status report deadline. Plaintiff should not file the Joint Initial Status Report before the defendant(s) has been served with process. The parties must discuss settlement in good faith and make a serious attempt to resolve this case amicably. All counsel of record must read and comply with this Court's Standing Orders on its webpage. Please pay special attention to the Standing Orders about Depositions and Discovery. Mailed notice. 翻译 |
