MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff asks this Court to reconsider its 7/15/25 order [46] denying Plaintiff's motion for default judgment based upon Plaintiff's failure to establish the propriety of exercising personal jurisdiction, see [47]. As Plaintiff correctly notes, when assessing jurisdiction, this Court must focus on Defendants' actions; doing so here, the Court determined that Plaintiff's proffer that it "placed an order for Defendant's Counterfeit/Infringing Products and said order was received by Plaintiff at an address located within this District," [43] at 2, remains insufficient, [69]. Plaintiff suggests that the Court's ruling remains inconsistent with NBA Props., Inc. v. HANWJH, 46 F.4th 614 (7th Cir. 2022); not so. That case emphasizes that, for the exercise of personal jurisdiction to comport with "established constitutional limitations," the defendant's actions must be "purposefully directed" a standard satisfied, for example, when a defendant "creates an interactive website and explicitly provides that Illinois residents could purchase its products through that website," "arranged for the sale of its products through third-party websites," "sent written confirmation to the Illinois customers acknowledging their sale and including their Illinois shipping address," and then, "shipped the product to its customers who were in Illinois." NBA Props., 46 F.4th at 624 (citing Curry v. Revolution Laboratories, LLC, 949 F.3d 385, 399 (7th Cir. 2020)). In distinguishing Matlin v. Spin Master Corp., 921 F.3d 701 (7th Cir. 2019), where the exercise of personal jurisdiction did not pass constitutional muster, the court in NBA Props. also emphasized, however, the importance of determining whether the "plaintiff-initiated contact" was done "solely to lure the defendants into Illinois to establish personal jurisdiction over them." 46 F.4th at 625. That is precisely what has transpired here. Although Plaintiff represents that Defendant has sold infringing products 605 times, the only one sold here was sold to Plaintiff, and, as in Matlin, constituted "a single incident conjured up by the plaintiffs' attorney for the exclusive purpose of establishing personal jurisdiction over the defendants." 921 F.3d at 706. As a result, the Court denies Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration [47] and strikes the 7/30/25 Notice of Motion date. Mailed notice. 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: The Court again denies Plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment [42]. The Court initially denied the motion because Plaintiff's counsel could not confirm that Defendant had, in fact, shipped infringing goods to Illinois, see [45]. Plaintiff renewed its motion adding representations that Plaintiff placed an order for Defendant's Counterfeit/Infringing Products and said order was received by Plaintiff at an address located within this District. Furthermore, in response to discovery requests outlined in the TRO, Amazon reported at least 605 cumulative sales for the four different Counterfeit/Infringing Products offered by Defendant." [43] at 2. These representations establish only that Defendant shipped a single item to Illinois, and that was in connection with Plaintiff's test buy. They thus fail to establish the propriety of default judgment and instead undermine the prior representations concerning personal jurisdiction and venue. See, e.g., Walden v. Fiore, 571 U.S. 277, 285 (2014) ("the plaintiff cannot be the only link between the defendant and the forum"); Expeditee LLC v. Entities Listed on Exhibit 1, No. 21 C 6440, 2022 WL 1556381, at *4 (N.D. Ill. May 17, 2022) ("Plaintiff claims that, as part of its preliminary investigation, it purchased infringing products from the Moving Defendants that the Moving Defendants shipped to Chicago. Such sales on their own are insufficient for the purposes of personal jurisdiction, for Plaintiff has not identified evidence of any transactions involving an allegedly counterfeit product between the Moving Defendants and Illinois customers, other than the 'test buys.'"). The 7/16/25 Notice of Motion date is stricken. If Plaintiff remains unable to establish personal jurisdiction 7/28/2025, the Court will dismiss this case on 7/31/25. Mailed notice. (jn,) 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Motion hearing held on Plaintiff's motion for preliminary injunction [31] on 6/18/2025. Defendant failed to appear and failed to otherwise object in response to the TRO or Plaintiff's motion.

Enter Preliminary Injunction Order. The Court directs the Clerk to unseal any previously sealed documents in this matter. Plaintiff's counsel shall add Defendant to the Court's docket within three business days.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff initially sought to sue 297 defendants in this single trademark infringement suit, see [1], [3]. Once the case was assigned to this Court, however, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint aimed at a single defendant, see [11], [13]. Having avoided joinder issues, Plaintiff may proceed on its amended complaint [11].

The Court also grants Plaintiff's motion seeking entry of a temporary restraining order [15]. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. Absent further order, this Temporary Restraining Order shall expire on 6/10/25. The 5/28/25 Notice of Motion date is stricken as to all motions. Mailed notice. 翻译 |
