05/25/2022 | DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Manish S. Shah on 5/25/2022. Notices mailed. |
05/25/2022 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: No defendant has appeared or objected to the motion for default judgment. The motion 33 is granted. Based on the evidence submitted in support of the temporary restraining order and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, plaintiff has established that a permanent injunction should be entered. The infringement of plaintiff's trademarks irreparably harms plaintiff and confuses the public. The infringement was willful and statutory damages are awarded. After considering the nature of the products, the price point, the absence of any concrete evidence of lost profits or high-volume infringement by defendants, the value of the plaintiff's brand, and the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the court concludes that $100,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages. This award applies only once to each defaulting defendant, even if the defendant uses multiple aliases listed in Schedule A. Enter Default Judgment Order. Terminate civil case. Notices mailed. |

12/02/2021 | PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION. Signed by the Honorable Manish S. Shah on 12/2/2021. Notices mailed. |
12/02/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 23 is granted. No defendant has appeared or objected to the motion.

The Clerk is directed to unseal any previously sealed documents in this matter. Plaintiff's counsel is directed to add all defendants listed on Schedule A to the court's docket within three business days. Instructions on how to do so may be located on the court's website at www.ilnd.uscourts.gov/instructions. Notices mailed. |

11/01/2021 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Manish S. Shah on 11/1/2021. Notices mailed. |
11/01/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Plaintiff's ex parte motion to seal 6, for excess pages 8, and for a temporary restraining order, asset restraint, expedited discovery, and electronic service of process 9 are granted. The plaintiff's written submissions establish that if defendants were informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, assets would likely be redirected, defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping the infringement, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the submitted evidence establishes a likelihood of success on the merits, the harm to plaintiff is irreparable, and an injunction is in the public interest because infringement interferes with the plaintiff's ability to control its intellectual property and causes consumer confusion. Those rights cannot be fully compensated by money damages. There is no countervailing harm to defendants 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 is an effective, perhaps the most effective, way to communicate with defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and implement the asset freeze. If any defendant were to appear and object, the court will take a fresh look at the asset freeze, joinder, and personal jurisdiction. Because plaintiff names over 200 defendants, the court is doubtful that the defendants are properly joined, but will await adversarial presentation on the question. A $50,000 bond is sufficient to secure the injunction. Plaintiff shall post security by 11/4/21. Enter Sealed TRO. Notices mailed. |
