| 05/13/2021 | REDACTED SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 05/13/2021. Emailed notice |
| 05/13/2021 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 05/13/2021. Emailed notice |
| 05/06/2021 | 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. The Plaintiff's request to file under seal is granted in light of the asset-restraint goal. On joinder, on examination of the online screenshots of the proposed amended Defendants, the uniqueness of the particular offered goods (including type, design, and coloring of the goods) and their striking similarity to one another makes joinder of the Amended Schedule A Defendants appropriate. ***By 05/10/2021, the Plaintiff shall email an under-seal version and a redacted version of the proposed TRO (to reflect any edits needed by the Amended Schedule A).*** The TRO will expire 14 days after the Court actually enters it (and of course the TRO is not effective until its actual entry). The Plaintiff's request for electronic service of process is granted. The tracking status hearing of 05/07/2021 is reset to 05/21/2021 at 8:30 a.m. The Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion by 05/18/2021. Emailed notice |
| 04/15/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The examination of joinder remains pending. The tracking status hearing of 04/16/2021 is reset to 05/07/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |
| 04/07/2021 | ATTORNEY Appearance for Plaintiff Grumpy Cat Limited by Robert Payton Mcmurray |
| 03/25/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Court still has the joinder issue under advisement. The tracking status hearing of 03/26/2021 is reset to 04/16/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |
| 02/25/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The joinder issue is still under advisement. The tracking status hearing of 02/26/2021 is reset to 03/26/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Mailed notice |
| 01/28/2021 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The joinder issue remains under advisement, so the tracking status hearing of 01/29/2021 is reset to 02/26/2021 at 8:30 am., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |
| 12/22/2020 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Court takes the joinder issue under advisement. The tracking status hearing of 12/23/2020 is reset to 01/29/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Mailed notice |

| 12/07/2020 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion 5 to file under seal is granted in light of the goal of asset restraint. The motion 7 to exceed page limit is granted. But this case was filed against 250 defendants for infringing the same set of trademarks. Joinder as to all of those defendants is not proper when measured against the standard set in Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182, 188-89 (N.D. Ill. 2020). On review of the exhibits and the TRO motion, it does not appear that the Plaintiff picked the Defendants for joinder based on that standard. The Plaintiff shall file an amended complaint and amended Schedule A by 12/16/2020, to comply with the opinion, as well as a memorandum explaining why joinder is proper as to the amended Schedule A. To track the filing of the amended complaint, a status hearing is set for 12/23/2020 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called).
