MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The motion for a temporary restraining order [17] is denied in without prejudice to renewal. The court acknowledges Plaintiff's arguments as to personal jurisdiction considering the representation that Defendant has shipped a fulfilled order to this district. Plaintiff is a "source for women's fashion apparel, accessories, and related merchandise," who has secured a brand trademark registered with the trademark office. Temporary restraining orders are extraordinary and drastic remedies that "should not be granted unless the movant, by a clear showing, carries the burden of persuasion." Mazurek v. Armstrong, 520 U.S. 968, 972 (1997). The party seeking such relief must show: (1) it has some likelihood of success on the merits; (2) there is no adequate remedy at law; and (3) it will suffer irreparable harm if the court denies relief. GEFT Outdoors, LLC v. City of Westfield, 922 F.3d 357, 364 (7th Cir. 2019). If each of those factors is met, the Court, employing a sliding scale approach, first weighs the harm the plaintiff will suffer absent an injunction against the harm to the defendant from an injunction, and next considers whether an injunction is in the public interest First, it is "all but impossible for the Court to discern the likelihood of success from the one-sided evidence provided." Eicher v. The Partnerships, 2025 WL 2299593, at *8 (N.D. Ill. Aug. 8, 2025). Indeed, "it is nearly impossible to resolve whether defendant[ is] engaged in [unlawful conduct] on such a sparse record," particularly absent adversarial briefing. Id. As for irreparable harm, it is true that the Seventh Circuit has held that damage to a trademark holder's goodwill can constitute irreparable injury for which the trademark owner has no adequate legal remedy and that as a result irreparable harm "is generally presumed in trademark infringement cases." Re/Max N. Cent., Inc. v. Cook, 272 F.3d 424, 432 (7th Cir. 2001)). Generic facts alleged in Schedule A cases cannot satisfy Rule 65(b); by extension, Schedule A plaintiffs should not be entitled to such presumptions. Even assuming that the likelihood of success, irreparable harm, and adequate remedy at law factors are met, the court is not persuaded that the Schedule A mechanism satisfies the balance of interests inquiry, or even that the court can properly weigh the interests at stake without Defendant's presence in the case. Nor will the public interest be served by an ex parte ruling. To satisfy interest balancing, the "injunction must do more good than harm (which is to say that the 'balance of equities' favors the plaintiff)." Hoosier Energy Rural Elec. Co-op., Inc. v. John Hancock Life Ins. Co., 582 F.3d 721, 725 (7th Cir. 2009). For the reasons explained in Eicher, Schedule A cases may be more likely to harm the public interest than to favor it. Finally, should Plaintiff renew its request for injunctive relief, the court will review that request with these considerations in mind. Any request for a prejudgment asset restraint, however, is not well taken because such restraints are not to be used to secure assets for collection. Disgorgement is an equitable remedy the court can impose where the defendant "actually holds property or proceeds that belong to the plaintiff which can be returned to the plaintiff." See Cont'l Vineyard LLC v. Dzierzawski, 2018 WL 11195945, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Apr. 5, 2018). Even in the typical disgorgement of profits scenario, courts are not obligated to impose a prejudgment asset restraint. The decision to do so is discretionary. See Roadget Bus. Pte. Ltd. v. Individuals, Corps., Ltd. Liab. Companies, Partnerships, & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A Hereto, 735 F. Supp. 3d 981, 983 (N.D. Ill. 2024) ("[W]here a plaintiff seeks an equitable remedy like disgorgement, an asset freeze may be appropriate.") Here, the court declines to exercise its discretion in the broad manner requested, particularly considering that imposing a prejudgment asset restraint is likely to encompasses legitimate assets. An asset restraint is not necessary to conduct an accounting; discovery and records of sales can provide any accounting plaintiff may be entitled to. Schedule A plaintiffs rarely pursue an actual accounting as a remedy and rarely justify requests for statutory damages by reference to actual sales figures, lost profits, or the like. Instead, counsel typically ask for statutory damages based on notions of deterrence without case-specific factual support justifying the number. Mailed notice. 翻译 |

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The Court grants the motion to seal [4], but upon review of the complaint, the Court sua sponte raises the propriety of joining more than 10 defendants in a single action. By October 2, 2025, plaintiff must file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint by October 2, 2025 with a smaller subset of defendants along with a memorandum explaining why that smaller subset of defendants is properly joined. No motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order should be filed in this matter without counsel first consulting the opinion issued in Wham-O Holding v. The Partnerships, 24 CV 12523, Dkt. 39 (N.D. Ill. Feb. 20, 2025) (Alexakis, J.). Mailed notice. 翻译 |
