MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's Ex Parte Motion to Extend the Temporary Restraining Order [30] is granted. For the reasons stated in Plaintiff's Memorandum [30], the Court finds good cause to extend the temporary restraining order an additional 14 days to 11/13/2025. Plaintiff shall file a preliminary injunction motion if appropriate no later than 11/6/2025. Telephone status hearing set for 10/30/2025 is stricken and reset to 11/13/2025 at 9:15 a.m. Mailed notice 翻译 |

SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 10/16/2025. Mailed notice 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motions for leave to seal [22] [26], ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, expedited discovery, and alternative service [24], and motion for leave to file excess pages [23] are granted. Plaintiff's submissions establish that were defendant to learn of these proceedings before the execution of plaintiff's requested preliminary injunctive relief, there is a significant risk that defendant could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Accordingly, subject to unsealing at an appropriate time, plaintiff may file under seal the documents identified in the motion to seal. The Temporary Restraining Order being entered along with this minute order shall also be placed under seal. In addition, for the purpose of the motions cited above, plaintiff's filings support proceeding on an ex parte basis at this time. Specifically, and as noted above, were defendant to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, the Court finds that it is likely that their assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendant, stopping defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. Further, the evidence submitted by plaintiff shows a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), that the harm to plaintiff is irreparable, and that an injunction is in the public interest. An injunction serves the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit products, and there is no countervailing harm to defendant 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 effectively communicates the pendency of this action to defendant. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendant and to implement the asset freeze. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order at 11:45 a.m. on 10/16/2025. Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) if appropriate no later than 10/23/2025. Telephone status hearing is set for 10/30/2025 at 9:15 a.m. Telephone status hearing set for 10/23/2025 is stricken. Mailed notice 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: The Court has reviewed the plaintiff's memorandum on joinder [16] and determines, within its discretion, that plaintiff has failed to satisfy its burden to show that joinder of 31 defendants is proper in this patent infringement case. 35 U.S.C. � 299 governs joinder in patent cases and provides, in relevant part: "[P]arties that are accused [patent] infringers may be joined in one action as defendants or counterclaim defendants, or have their actions consolidated for trial, only if(1) any right to relief is asserted against the parties jointly, severally, or in the alternative with respect to or arising out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences relating to the making, using, importing into the United States, offering for sale, or selling of the same accused product or process; and (2) questions of fact common to all defendants or counterclaim defendants will arise in the action." 35 U.S.C. � 299(a). Joinder is improper where "accused infringers" are joined "based solely on allegations that they each have infringed the patent or patents in suit." Id. at � 299(b). Claims against different defendants arise out of the same transaction or occurrence or series of transactions or occurrences when "there is a 'logical relationship' between them." Tang v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2024 WL 68332, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 4, 2024) (quoting In re EMC Corp., 677 F.3d 1351, 1358 (Fed. Cir. 2012)). Such a relationship "requires shared, overlapping facts that give rise to each cause of action, and not just distinct, albeit coincidentally identical, facts." Id. Plaintiff has not demonstrated that its claims against all defendants may be properly joined in the same case in accordance with Section 299's same transaction-or-occurrence test. Plaintiff's claim that the defendants are selling the same versions of plaintiff's products is insufficient as "a claim that the defendants infringed on [the plaintiff's] design patent in the same way. is not sufficient to link one defendant's infringement to another as part of 'the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences'" under � 299. Tang, 2024 WL 68332, at *2 (quoting 35 U.S.C. � 299(a)); Este Lauder Cosmetics, Ltd. v. P'ships and Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182, 187 (N.D. Ill. 2020) ("Committing the same type of violation in the same way does not link defendants together for the purpose of joinder.") (cleaned up) (quoting AF Holdings, LLC v. Does 1-1508, 752 F.3d 990, 998 (D.C. Cir. 2014)). For the same reasons, joinder is also improper under Rule 20. Accordingly, the Court dismisses defendant Nos. 2-31 without prejudice. The case will proceed against defendant No. 1. If plaintiff files a new action against defendants Nos. 2-31, plaintiff shall indicate on the Civil Cover Sheet that the filed case is related to this matter. See Local Rule 40.3(b)(2). Plaintiff's motion in support of joinder [16] is denied. Plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order [7] is denied without prejudice. Plaintiff's motions to seal [6] [9] [15] [17] and motion for leave to file excess pages [11] are granted. Plaintiff is granted leave to file an amended complaint in accordance with this Order by 10/15/2025. Mailed notice 翻译 |
