05/07/2021 SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 05/07/2021. Emailed notice
05/07/2021 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion 8 for temporary restraining order and other relief is granted. An order will be entered under seal separately. 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), the 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, the 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 the Defendants, who likely would seek to transfer the money elsewhere. Also, joinder of the Defendants in Amended Schedule A appears to be proper: the narrowed set of Defendants sell the same item, with the same design, and present the same unique advertising text (including the number and content of specific Overview notes). The Plaintiff's motion 4 for leave to file under seal is granted in light of the asset-restraint goal. By 05/14/2021, The Plaintiff shall email a redacted version of the TRO that can be entered publicly (redacting the names of Defendants and omitting Amended Schedule A). The Plaintiff's motion 10 for electronic service of process is granted. Bond is set at $10,000. To track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called), a status hearing is set for 05/21/2021 at 8:30 a.m. The Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) no later than 05/14/2021. Emailed notice
