11/12/2025
MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff has filed a second amended complaint seeking to sue three separate defendants for patent infringement. See [20]. Still, "parties that are accused infringers may be joined in one action as defendants. 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." Id. § 299(a). The statute specifically provides that "accused infringers may not be joined in one action as defendants. based solely on allegations that they each have infringed the patent or patents in suit." Id. § 299(b). Plaintiff's complaint, which lumps all Defendants together, alleges that "each infringing product features a specific circuit board common to all of the Accused Products sold by all Defendants, a fan in the same housing as the circuit board and battery wherein the fan is not centered in the housing, identical wiring schematics, and other claimed components, thereby infringing Plaintiff's Patent in the same manner." [20] 24. But this allegation establishes only that each Defendant may be infringing the patent in suit, which remains insufficient. Plaintiff also alleges that the "Online Stores operating under the Seller Aliases share identifiers establishing that a logical relationship exists between them, and that Defendants' infringing operation arises out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences." Id. at 26. This allegation remains conclusory. What's more, the conclusion Plaintiff seeks to draw does not necessarily follow from the alleged fact; it is equally possible that each online retailer set up shop in the same or similar manner. See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosms. Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182, 188-89 (N.D. Ill. 2020). The Court accordingly finds that Plaintiff may not proceed on the current complaint [20] and dismisses it without prejudice. The Court will grant Plaintiff one last opportunity to amend: if Plaintiff can, consistent with its obligations under Rule 11, amend its complaint to support the joinder of the identified defendants in this single action, it may do so by 11/28/25. The Court denies Plaintiff's renewed motion for expedited discovery [21] and strikes the 11/12/25 Notice of Motion date. If Plaintiff elects to amend its complaint, it must also file a supplemental report confirming whether it has previously named any of the 18 defendants identified in this case in a prior case asserting infringement of the same patent. See Julie Stiebritz v. The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 1:25-cv-03459, at [19] (N.D. Ill. Apr. 9, 2025) (dismissing the case because plaintiff previously named defendants in a prior case and dismissed them to avoid an unfavorable joinder ruling, which constitutes forum shopping). In any amended complaint, Plaintiff should also consider its allegations relating to personal jurisdiction as to each Defendant; the mere maintenance of a website accessible in Illinois remains insufficient to confer personal jurisdiction. See, e.g., Am. Bridal & Prom Indus. Ass'n, Inc. v. The Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 192 F. Supp. 3d 924, 93435 (N.D. Ill. 2016) (simply alleging the existence of purported counterfeiting via an interactive website is not enough, by itself, to confer personal jurisdiction); Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a defendant up to personal jurisdiction in every spot on the planet where that interactive website is accessible."); Rubik's Brand, Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 20-CV-5338, 2021 WL 825668, at *3 (N.D. Ill. Mar. 4, 2021) (screenshot evidence showing that an order could be placed by an Illinoisan, "amounts to nothing more than maintaining an interactive website that is accessible in Illinois," and "that alone cannot confer personal jurisdiction."). If Plaintiff declines to amend, the Court will dismiss this case. Mailed notice. 翻译

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff initiated this patent infringement case by filing a complaint against 18 separate defendants, see 1, 2 ; it filed an amended complaint on 10/9/25, seeking to sue three defendants, see 12, 13. Plaintiff seeks to proceed, at least initially, via pseudonym. See 5. Plaintiff also seeks leave to temporarily seal its complaint, the "Schedule A" listing the named Defendants, a copy of Plaintiff's patent, Plaintiff's motion for a temporary restraining order, and all of the declarations submitted in support of that motion. See 4. "No-name litigation is disfavored in general, and particularly in this Circuit." XYZ Corp. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 21-CV-06471, 2022 WL 180151, at *12 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 20, 2022). The Seventh Circuit has "repeatedly voiced its disfavor of parties proceeding anonymously, as anonymous litigation runs contrary to the rights of the public to have open judicial proceedings and to know who is using court facilities and procedures funded by public taxes. To proceed anonymously, a party must demonstrate 'exceptional circumstances' that outweigh both the public policy in favor of identified parties and the prejudice to the opposing party that would result from anonymity." Id. (citing Doe v. Vill. of Deerfield, 819 F.3d 372, 37677 (7th Cir. 2016); Doe v. Smith, 429 F.3d 706, 710 (7th Cir. 2005); Doe v. Blue Cross & Blue Shield United of Wis., 112 F.3d 869, 872 (7th Cir. 1997)). Many cases just like this are filed every day in this District without anonymous plaintiffs, and the Court has no reason to think that the requested sealing order (which would prevent defendants from learning that they have been sued) remains insufficient by itself to alleviate any concerns Plaintiff may have about disclosing its identity. The Court denies Plaintiff's motion to proceed under a pseudonym 5. Because Plaintiff has failed to identify itself on any of the pending pleadings, the Court dismisses the operative complaint 12, 13 without prejudice and denies without prejudice all pending motions 4, 14, 16, and strikes the 10/15/25 Notice of Motion date as to all motions. If Plaintiff elects to pursue an amended complaint and revised motions, it should ensure that its pleadings provide a factual and legal basis to join multiple defendants in a single suit. Under 35 U.S.C. § 299(b), "accused infringers may not be joined in one action as defendants. based solely on allegations that they each have infringed the patent or patents in suit," which is what Plaintiff has alleged, 13 24. Plaintiff should also ensure that its submissions support the exercise of personal jurisdiction as to each defendant; in this regard, the mere maintenance of a website accessible in Illinois (which is what Plaintiff has alleged, id. 2), remains insufficient. E.g., Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a defendant up to personal jurisdiction in every spot on the planet where that interactive website is accessible."); Rubik's Brand, Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 20-CV-5338, 2021 WL 825668, at *3 (N.D. Ill. Mar. 4, 2021) (screenshot evidence showing that an order could be placed by an Illinoisan, "amounts to nothing more than maintaining an interactive website that is accessible in Illinois," and "that alone cannot confer personal jurisdiction."). Mailed notice. 翻译
