MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The matter is set for a telephonic status hearing on September 11, 2025 at 9:00 am. After further review of the briefs on the motion to stay enforcement of the preliminary injunction, the court is concerned that it may have erroneously excluded the declarations or testimony of Dr. Brown, Prof. Rosenblum, and Ms. Sophia Chen offered by Defendant in opposition to a preliminary injunction. The court's July 2025 order explained that it was disregarding this evidence because Plaintiff complained that the expert disclosure was untimely. As Defendant points out in its brief, see docket entry 97, a harmlessness analysis under David v. Caterpillar, Inc., 324 F.3d 851, 857 (7th Cir. 2003) was a more appropriate approach, which the court did not conduct. Because the court's preliminary injunction decision is currently under appellate review by the Seventh Circuit, (see Notice of Appeal, Dkt. 92), the court lacks jurisdiction to sua sponte reconsider its previous decision. See Griggs v. Provident Consumer Discount Co., 459 U.S. 56, 58 (1982) ("The filing of a notice of appeal is an event of jurisdictional significance - it confers jurisdiction on the court of appeals and divests the district court of its control over those aspects of the case involved in the appeal."). However, because of the court's concern about having made a potentially erroneous decision, the court notifies the parties that it intends to notify the Seventh Circuit that (1) the court intends to sua sponte reconsider its decision granting a preliminary injunction, should the Seventh Circuit remand for this purpose, and (2) pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 62.1, upon reconsideration, the court would likely reverse its decision to exclude the expert evidence on timeliness grounds and hold a preliminary injunction hearing to determine whether a preliminary injunction should be granted in light of this evidence. See Mendia v. Garcia, 874 F.3d 1118, 1121 (9th Cir. 2017) ("Therefore, in the interest of effectively using our time and resources, as well as a means of legitimate case management, we join our sister circuits in holding that a FRCP 62.1 motion is not a prerequisite for a limited remand under FRAP 12.1(b) where the district court has already indicated it would grant a motion for the requested relief.") (collecting cases); Gustavia Home, LLC v. Hoyer, 2025 WL 2233400, at *2 n.3 (2nd Cir. Aug. 6, 2025) (remanding under FRAP 12.1 and FRCP 62.1 when a district court issued an indicative ruling sua sponte, as opposed to in response to a motion, after notifying the parties of its intent to do so); Fort Knox Music Inc. v. Baptiste, 257 F.3d 108, 111 (2d Cir. 2001) (A "district court 'has power to decide sua sponte whether its judgment should be vacated, provided all parties have notice.'") (quoting Int'l Controls Corp. v. Vesco, 556 F.2d 665, 668 n.2 (2d Cir. 1977)) (cleaned up)). The parties should be prepared at the status hearing to explain whether they wish to file a motion for relief under FRCP 62.1. or to place any objection to the court issuing an indicative ruling that it intends to reconsider its preliminary injunction order on the record at the hearing. Attorneys/Parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 855-244-8681, Access Code: 2302 225 8245. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing (use toll free number). Please, please be sure to keep your phone on mute when you are not speaking. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings. Violation of these prohibitions may result in sanctions, including removal of court issued media credentials, restricted entry to future hearings, denial of entry to future hearings, or any other sanctions deemed necessary by the Court.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The matter is set for a telephonic status hearing on July 30, 2025 at 10:15 am. Plaintiff should be prepared to offer its position on the motion to stay. In addition, the court wishes to better understand Defendant's statement that it is "amenable to a brief, tightly cabined evidentiary hearing with time limited cross examination of Dr. Brown, Prof. Rosenblum, and Ms. Sophia Chen." [Dkt. [97] at 6]. To this end, the court's order disregarded expert materials for the reasons explained, but Defendant explains why it believes fair notice was provided. Had those materials been considered, Dr. Brown's description of "a 1995 Bible Land children's board game piece depicting a cute, chubby cheeked Jesus in a white robe with a blue sash" decades before Hallmark's 2017 doll would have been among the relevant considerations. (This is but one example). The parties should confer, if possible, and be prepared to discuss appropriate next steps at the status hearing, bearing in mind the constraints raised by the pending appeal. Attorneys/Parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 855-244-8681, Access Code: 2302 225 8245. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing (use toll free number). Please, please be sure to keep your phone on mute when you are not speaking.
