| 08/22/2025 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: The Court has reviewed the plaintiff's memorandum on joinder [12]. For the reasons stated in the attached Order, the Court determines, within its discretion, that plaintiff has failed to satisfy his burden to show that joinder of 13 defendants is proper in this matter under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). Accordingly, the Court dismisses defendant Nos. 2-13 without prejudice. The case will proceed against defendant No. 1. If plaintiff files a new action against defendant Nos. 2-13, plaintiff shall indicate on the Civil Cover Sheet that the filed case is related to this matter. See Local Rule 40.3(b)(2). Accordingly, plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order [11] is denied without prejudice. Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal [10] is granted in part as to the Schedule "A" attached to the Amended Complaint, Memorandum in Support of Joinder, Plaintiff's Motion and Brief in Support of Plaintiff's Ex Parte Request for an Emergency Temporary Restraining Order, and denied in part as to the Amended Complaint and Plaintiff's intellectual property registrations. "There is insufficient evidence. that Schedule A defendants are taking advantage of the case-tracking option to such an extent that it is materially impeding brand owners' enforcement efforts." XYZ Corp. v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2022 WL 180151, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 20, 2022). Plaintiff is granted leave to file a second amended complaint in accordance with this Order by 9/9/2025. Mailed notice |

| 07/09/2025 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for leave 4 is granted as to the request to file Schedule "A" attached to the Complaint and Exhibit 1 to the Complaint under seal and denied as to the request to proceed anonymously with Plaintiff's identity under seal and denied as to all other documents listed in the motion as they have not been filed. Exceptional circumstances have not been shown to proceed anonymously. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(a) ("The title of the complaint must name all the parties[.]"); Doe v. Village of Deerfield, 819 F.3d 372, 377 (7th Cir. 2016) ("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."); XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2020 WL 6681360, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 12, 2020) ("No-name litigation is the rare exception, not the Rule."). "There is insufficient evidence. that Schedule A defendants are taking advantage of the case-tracking option to such an extent that it is materially impeding brand owners' enforcement efforts." XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2022 WL 180151, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 20, 2022). Accordingly, by 7/16/2025, plaintiff shall file an amended complaint that lists plaintiff's true name. Upon review of the complaint, the Court sua sponte raises the proprietary of joinder of 15 defendants in this case. See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). By 7/16/2025, plaintiff shall file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder in light of the principles described in Estee Lauder. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint with a single defendant or a smaller subset of defendants along with its memorandum explaining specifically why each defendant is properly joined to all of the others. Estee Lauder, 334 F.R.D. at 189. Mailed notice. |
