| 05/06/2020 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E.

| 04/27/2020 | REDACTED SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 4/27/2020. Mailed notice |
| 04/27/2020 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 04/27/2020. Mailed notice |
| 04/27/2020 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On review of the motion for TRO [13], the Court grants the requested relief with one caveat. On the merits of the motion, success is virtually guaranteed in light of the apparent absence of authorization to use the trademark; there is no adequate remedy at law and there is irreparable injury in light of the nature of the intellectual property at stake; and there is a public interest in avoiding counterfeit goods being sold to unwitting consumers. The Court notes that the amended complaint satisfies proper joinder. Although the Court again expresses its concern about restraining assets before judgment, Grupo Mexicano de Desarrollo v. Alliance Bond Fund, 527 U.S. 308, 331 (1999), Plaintiff does invoke a statutory remedy, namely, an accounting of profits (that is, disgorgement of profits) under 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a), which is not a mere common-law equitable claim and thus could allow for pre-judgment restraint. Indeed, trademark owners need only "prove defendant's sales only; defendant must prove all elements of costs or deduction claimed." 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a). To the extent that the restraint might be too broad, Defendants may appear and file challenges to the scope of the TRO. The balance of factors tips in favor of Plaintiff being able to freeze the assets without advance warning to Defendants, who likely would seek to transfer the money elsewhere. Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal is granted. Plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process [19] is granted. The TRO will be entered under seal separately. By 04/30/2020, Plaintiffs shall email a redacted PDF version of the TRO that can be entered publicly. Status hearing set for 05/11/2020 at 8:30 a.m., but only to track the case (no appearance). Plaintiffs shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) by 05/05/2020, noticed for presentment at the next status hearing date and time. Mailed notice |
