08/07/2023 | PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION ORDER Signed by the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado on 8/7/2023. |
08/07/2023 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado: Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 30 is granted. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk Defendant 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 the previously entered temporary restraining order, 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 32 that it provided electronic notice to Defendant of the pendency of this case, but no objection to the motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed on behalf of the defendant. The Clerk is requested to unseal the Amended Schedule A to the Complaint 14, Exhibit 3 to the Declaration of Joe Pallet 19, and the TRO 25. Plaintiff's counsel is directed to ensure that the defendant listed on Schedule A is added to the court's docket within five business days. Instructions for adding a party to the docket can be found on the Court's website at https://www.ilnd.uscourts.gov/_assets/_documents/_forms/_cmecf/pdfs/v60/Add_Terminate_Instructions.pdf. |

08/04/2023 | ATTORNEY Appearance for Plaintiff Converse Inc. by Berel Yonathan Lakovitsky |
07/24/2023 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado: The Court grants Plaintiff's motion for an extension of time of the Temporary Restraining Order 26. The TRO is extended through 8/9/23. Per Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(2), the Court finds good cause for this extension because Plaintiff reports that the relevant third parties have not completed effectuating the TRO. Further, without the TRO in place, there is a high probability that the Defendant will continue to harm the Plaintiff. |

07/12/2023 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado on 7/12/2023. Mailed notice. |
07/12/2023 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado: For the reasons set forth in Plaintiff's motions, the supporting memoranda, and the temporary restraining order, Plaintiff's motions for electronic service of process 20 and for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery 15, are granted. Plaintiff's filings support proceeding (for the time being) on an ex parte basis. Specifically, were Defendants to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, it is likely assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating Plaintiff's interests in identifying the individuals and entities operating Defendant online seller, stopping Defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the evidence submitted by Plaintiff shows a substantial likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and a sale into Illinois), the harm to Plaintiff is irreparable, and an injunction is in the public interest. 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. See, e.g., Oakley, Inc. v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified in Schedule "A," No. 20-CV-05049, 2021 WL 2894166, at *5 (N.D. Ill. July 9, 2021) (finding electronic service proper in similar circumstances). Expedited discovery is warranted to identify Defendants and to implement the asset freeze. In light of the Supreme Court's recent holding in Abitron Austria GmbH v. Hetronic International, Inc., 600 U.S. ___ (2023) that §1114(1)(a) and §1125(a)(1) of the Lanham Act do not have extraterritorial application, Plaintiff should attempt to seek discovery that identifies where Defendants used Plaintiff's marks in commerce. Plaintiff shall deposit with the Clerk of Court one thousand dollars ($1,000.00), either cash or surety bond, as security. |
