| 02/03/2026 | MOTION by Plaintiff Wumei Lin for extension of time for Temporary Restraining Order First Request 附件： 1:Declaration of Joseph W. Droter in Support of First Motion to Extend Temporary R 2:Memorandum in Support of First Motion to Extend Temporary Restraining Order |
| 01/27/2026 | ELECTRONIC SERVICE AND EXPEDITED DISCOVERY ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 1/27/2026. Mailed notice |
| 01/27/2026 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 1/27/2026. Mailed notice |
| 01/27/2026 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani:Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal [4], motion for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction and a temporary asset restraint [15], and motion for electronic service of process and expedited discovery [14] are granted. Plaintiff's submissions establish that were defendant to learn of these proceedings before the execution of plaintiff's requested preliminary injunctive relief, there is a significant risk that defendant could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Accordingly, subject to unsealing at an appropriate time, plaintiff may file under seal the documents identified in the motion to seal. The Temporary Restraining Order being entered along with this minute order shall also be placed under seal. In addition, for the purpose of the motions cited above, plaintiff's filings support proceeding on an ex parte basis at this time. Specifically, and as noted above, were defendant to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, the Court finds that it is likely that their assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendant, stopping defendant's infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. Further, the evidence submitted by plaintiff shows a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), that the harm to plaintiff is irreparable, and that an injunction is in the public interest. An injunction serves the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit products, and there is no countervailing harm to defendant 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 effectively communicates the pendency of this action to defendant. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendant and to implement the asset freeze. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order at 11:00 a.m. on 1/27/2026. Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) if appropriate no later than 2/3/2026. Telephone status hearing is set for 2/10/2026 at 9:15 a.m. Mailed notice |
| 12/31/2025 | ANNUAL REMINDER: Pursuant to Local Rule 3.2 (Notification of Affiliates), any nongovernmental party, other than an individual or sole proprietorship, must file a statement identifying all its affiliates known to the party after diligent review or, if the party has identified no affiliates, then a statement reflecting that fact must be filed. An affiliate is defined as follows: any entity or individual owning, directly or indirectly (through ownership of one or more other entities), 5% or more of a party. The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported. This minute order is being issued to all counsel of record to remind counsel of their obligation to provide updated information as to additional affiliates if such updating is necessary. If counsel has any questions regarding this process, this LINK will provide additional information. Signed by the Honorable Virginia M. Kendall on 12/31/2025: Mailed notice. |
