10/24/2024 | MAILED Trademark report to Patent Trademark Office, Alexandria VA. 附件: 1:(Closing Minute Entry dated 10/23/2024) |
10/23/2024 | STIPULATION of voluntary dismissal with prejudice order Signed by the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins on 10/23/2024. Mailed notice. |
10/23/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: Plaintiff and the remaining Defendant Cosplay have filed a stipulation of dismissal 111. There appears to be nothing remaining for the Court to do, so the clerk is to close the case. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice. |
10/22/2024 | STIPULATION of Dismissal Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice |
10/11/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: In light of the status report, the Court provide the parties until October 25, 2024 to either file a stipulation of dismissal or a proposed fact discovery schedule. If nothing is filed by that time, the Court will set fact discovery deadlines and impose them on the parties. Given the parties negotiations, the Court defers entering Defendant Cosplay's proposed order to vacate until such time as the Court enters a fact discovery schedule. Emailed notice |
10/11/2024 | STATUS Report Joint Status Report by TV Tokyo Corporation |
10/07/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: In light of the briefing on the motion to vacate, the motion 100 is granted. The clerk is directed to reopen the case. At the very least, Defendant Cosplay has demonstrated that it is questionable whether electronic service was accomplished as the Court previously ordered. As to the question of personal jurisdiction, taking Plaintiff's allegation that Cosplay has conducted a minimal amount of business in Illinois as true, there would appear to be a genuine dispute as to whether those contacts support exercising jurisdiction. This is true even if Cosplay's only sale in Illinois was a sale to Plaintiff's counsel. This would appear to be enough for a prima facie showing that Plaintiff's claim regarding jurisdictional contacts with Illinois. To support the exercise of specific jurisdiction, a suit "must arise out of or relate to the defendant's contacts with the forum," but the relationship need not be strictly causal. Ford Motor Co. v. Mont. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 592 U.S. 351, 359-62 (2021) (cleaned up). The key is foreseeability: "potential defendants should have some control overand certainly should not be surprised bythe jurisdictional consequences of their actions." Tamburo v. Dworkin, 601 F.3d 693, 701 (7th Cir. 2010) (cleaned up). The parties are to confer and propose a fact discovery schedule by October 15, 2024. This assumes that Defendant does not wish to file an answer now and instead wishes to pursue the jurisdictional question raised in its brief. Accordingly, the fact discovery schedule the parties propose should account for time to conduct jurisdictional discovery and the Court will set any appropriate motion schedule following the close of all fact discovery. Mailed notice. |

01/08/2024 | ENTERED PARTIAL FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins on 1/8/2024. Mailed notice. |
01/08/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The following order does not apply to Defendants Quanzhou nanan Southwell Arts&crafts Co., Ltd., or Shenzhen Zhitengda Electronic Commerce Co., Ltd. No remaining Defendant has responded to Plaintiff's motion for entry of default judgment. Accordingly, the motion [60] is granted. Based on the evidence previously submitted by Plaintiff 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 marks irreparably harms Plaintiff and confuses the public. This 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 (Plaintiff has failed to seek an accounting of profits), the value of Plaintiff's brand, and the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the court concludes that $75,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages. Enter Partial Final Judgment Order. Mailed notice. |

Defendant Defendants Quanzhou nanan Southwell Arts&crafts Co., Ltd., or Shenzhen Zhitengda Electronic Commerce Co., Ltd may file its responsive pleading by January 23, 2024. Mailed notice. |

12/19/2023 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 46 is granted. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk Defendants will transfer relevant assets beyond the Court's reach. For these reasons, as well as the reasons provided in the whole of Plaintiff's filings and as stated by the Court in connection with entry of the TRO, the Court is persuaded that Plaintiff has satisfied the requirements for a preliminary injunction. In addition, the Court finds that the balance of harms favors Plaintiff and that a preliminary injunction serves the public interest by, among other things, protecting consumers from the marketing of counterfeit goods. Plaintiff has also certified and established 53 that it provided electronic notice to defendants of the pendency of this case and provided a link to a website containing relevant case documents, but no objection to the motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed on behalf of any defendant. Enter preliminary injunction order. The Clerk shall unseal any documents that are sealed.

Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. For the reasons stated in the Court's orders entering the TRO, the TRO is extended until the Court adjudicates the motion for a preliminary injunction. See H-D Mich., LLC v.
