02/03/2025 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff has filed an amended complaint, which seeks to sue three Defendants for trademark infringement. See 13, 15. Again, joinder of multiple defendants in a single trademark infringement action remains appropriate only if the claims against the defendants are asserted "with respect to or arising out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences," and a common question of law or fact exists as to all defendants. Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2)(A)-(B). In this regard, the complaint, which lumps all Defendants together, alleges, in a conclusory manner, that "Defendant Internet Stores share unique identifiers, such as design elements and similarities of the counterfeit products offered for sale, establishing a logical relationship between them and suggesting that Defendants' illegal operations arise out of the same transaction, occurrence or series of transactions or occurrences." 13 4. Plaintiff also alleges that "the counterfeit products for sale in the Defendants' Internet Stores bear similarities and indicia of being related to one another," and that Defendants offered the same product at the same time on the same e-commerce platform. Id. 23. Such allegations, supported here with screenshot evidence, suffice at this stage, and Plaintiff may proceed on its amended complaint 13 against the three identified Defendants, see 15. Mailed notice. |
01/31/2025 | SEALED DOCUMENT by Plaintiff Blujay Studios, Inc. Amended Schedule A |
01/31/2025 | SEALED DOCUMENT by Plaintiff Blujay Studios, Inc. Sealed Exhibit 2 |
01/31/2025 | AMENDED complaint by Blujay Studios, Inc. against The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Amended Schedule A Hereto 附件: 1:(Exhibit 1) |
01/14/2025 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: In this trademark infringement suit, Plaintiff seeks to sue 250 separate defendants, see 1, 8. Joinder of multiple defendants in a single trademark infringement action remains appropriate only if the claims against the defendants are asserted "with respect to or arising out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences," and a common question of law or fact exists as to all defendants. Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2)(A)-(B). In this regard, the complaint, which lumps all Defendants together, alleges, in a conclusory manner, that "Defendant Internet Stores share unique identifiers, such as design elements and similarities of the counterfeit products offered for sale, establishing a logical relationship between them and suggesting that Defendants' illegal operations arise out of the same transaction, occurrence or series of transactions or occurrences." 1 4. But the conclusion does not necessarily follow from the alleged facts; it is equally possible that each online retailer set up shop in the same or similar manner. See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosms. Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182, 188-89 (N.D. Ill. 2020). Plaintiff also alleges that "numerous similarities among the Defendants' Internet Stores" exist; for example, "some of the Defendants' websites have identical layouts, even though different aliases were used to register their respective online marketplace accounts. In addition, the counterfeit products for sale in the Defendants' Internet Stores bear similarities and indicia of being related to one another, suggesting that the counterfeit products were manufactured by a common source and that Defendants are interrelated. The Defendants' Internet Stores also include other notable common features, including use of the same online marketplace account registration patterns, unique shopping cart platforms, similar payment and check-out methods, meta data, illegitimate SEO tactics, HTML user-defined variables, domain redirection, lack of contact information, identically or similarly priced items and volume sales discounts, similar hosting services, similar name servers and the use of the same text and images." Id. 23. Again, the allegations are conclusory, and Plaintiff has offered nothing to show that the Defendants' products and websites are so alike that their conduct constitutes a single occurrence. The Court accordingly finds that Plaintiff may not proceed on the current complaint 1 and dismisses it without prejudice. If Plaintiff can, consistent with its obligations under Rule 11, amend its complaint to support the joinder of the identified Defendants in this single action, it may do so by 1/31/25. The Court grants Plaintiff's motion to seal 7 and Plaintiff may file any amended complaint under seal. The 1/15/25 Notice of Motion date is stricken. Mailed notice. |
