| 10/22/2024 | NOTICE of Motion by Sofia Quezada Hastings for presentment of motion for entry of default, motion for default judgment, 61 before Honorable John Robert Blakey on 10/25/2024 at 11:00 AM. (Quezada Hastings, Sofia) |

| 10/04/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: The Court denies without prejudice Plaintiff's renewed motion for default judgment, 57, and strikes the 10/9/24 Notice of Motion date. In its memorandum in support, Plaintiff represents that "personal jurisdiction exists over Defaulting Defendants since they directly target their business activities toward consumers in the United States, including Illinois" by "operating one or more commercial, interactive e-commerce stores under the Seller Aliases through which Illinois residents can purchase Infringing Arctic Monkey Products." 58 at 4. But the mere maintenance of a website accessible in Illinois remains insufficient to confer personal jurisdiction. See, e.g., Am. Bridal & Prom Indus. Ass'n, Inc. v. The Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 192 F. Supp. 3d 924, 93435 (N.D. Ill. 2016) (simply alleging the existence of purported counterfeiting via an interactive website is not enough, by itself, to confer personal jurisdiction); Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a defendant up to personal jurisdiction in every spot on the planet where that interactive website is accessible."); Rubik's Brand, Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 20-CV-5338, 2021 WL 825668, at *3 (N.D. Ill. Mar. 4, 2021) (screenshot evidence showing that an order could be placed by an Illinoisan, "amounts to nothing more than maintaining an interactive website that is accessible in Illinois," and "that alone cannot confer personal jurisdiction."). If consistent with its obligations under Rule 11 Plaintiff can provide a factual and legal basis to support the entry of a default judgment against Defendants, including demonstrating that personal jurisdiction exists as to each Defendant, it may renew its motion and notice it for presentment on 10/25/24 at 11:00 a.m. Mailed notice |

| 10/01/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: The Court grants Plaintiff's motion 54 to remove docket entry 53, which was incorrectly filed and directs the Clerk to strike docket entry 53.

| 07/31/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Motion hearing held on 7/31/2024. No defendant has filed an appearance in this matter or otherwise objected in response to the TRO or Plaintiff's motion for entry of a preliminary injunction 38. Accordingly, and based upon the same findings made in this Court's TRO 28, this Court finds that a preliminary injunction is appropriate and warranted, as well as unopposed and grants Plaintiff's motion for preliminary injunction 38 as to the Defendants identified on the accompanying Schedule A. Enter Preliminary Injunction Order. The Court directs the Clerk to unseal any previously sealed documents in this matter. Plaintiff's counsel is directed to add all defendants listed on the accompanying Schedule A to the Court's docket within three business days. Plaintiff may find instructions at https://www.ilnd.uscourts.gov/_assets/_documents/_forms/_cmecf/pdfs/v60/Add_Terminate_Instructions.pdf. Consistent with the Court's prior order, 27, this case is dismissed without prejudice as to Defendant Nos. 125, 130, 138, 139, 150, 163, 171, 177, 179, 189 and 202 (which are excluded from the preliminary injunction as well as the TRO), as the current complaint does not provide a basis to find that these Defendants sold or offered for sale infringing products. By 9/13/24, Plaintiff shall file a status report regarding the status of service of process, settlement discussions, and any further information that Plaintiff wishes to bring to the Court's attention.

First, Plaintiff's motion seeks relief to remedy copyright infringement; yet the complaint does not allege copyright infringement or demonstrate the existence of any valid copyright. Second, Plaintiff has failed to attach the referenced Schedule A to its motion, and the Court cannot meaningfully assess whether Plaintiff directs its motion at the same Defendants identified in the Schedule A attached to the TRO or some other subset of Defendants.

| 06/24/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff has filed an amended complaint that includes supplemental allegations to support the joinder of Defendants in a single suit, see 19, and the Court finds that Plaintiff may proceed on the amended complaint, 19. Additionally, based upon the materials submitted, this Court grants Plaintiff's renewed ex parte motion for entry of a temporary restraining order 24 as to the Defendants identified in Schedule A for whom Plaintiff has demonstrated with screenshot evidence use of Plaintiff's mark. Enter sealed temporary restraining order. The Court denies the motion for TRO as to Defendants 125, 130, 138, 139, 150, 163, 171, 177, 179, 189 and 202, as the evidence Plaintiff submitted fails to show that any of these Defendants offered for sale a product that uses Plaintiff's mark. The attached order excludes these Defendants. Within seven calendar days of entry of this Order, Plaintiff shall deposit with the Court $208,000.00, either check or surety bond, as security. Absent further order, this TRO will expire on 7/8/24. The 6/26/24 Notice of Motion date is stricken. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 05/29/2024 | AMENDED complaint by Bang Bang Merchandise LLP against The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A 附件： 1:Exhibit A 2:(Exhibit Redlined Version of Amended Complaint)(Quezada Hastings, Sofia) |
| 05/15/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff seeks to sue 219 Defendants in this single action. But, as pled, Plaintiff's complaint fails to allege facts to support joinder. 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, Plaintiff alleges that joinder is appropriate because the defendants E-commerce stores "share unique identifiers, establishing a logical relationship between them and that Defendants' counterfeiting operation arises out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences." 1 5. But Plaintiff fails to allege facts to support this conclusion. Plaintiff alleges that "the similarities among product titles, product descriptions, images, particularly manipulated images, graphics, and overlapping online reviews, indicate that the Defendants are related or in further communication with each other to share infringing contact and work in concert in an attempt to avoid detection." [15-1] 21. Yet, a cursory review of the evidence submitted in support of the TRO undermines this conclusion to some extent; although some of the sellers' products do use the same or similar designs, others vary from seller to seller. Moreover, some of the allegedly infringing products do not even appear to include Plaintiff's mark. See, e.g., [16-2] at 100-102, 133-136; [16-3] at 11-17. To the extent Plaintiff can, consistent with its obligations under Rule 11, amend its complaint to allege facts to support the joinder of 219 Defendants in this single action, it may do so by 6/7/24. If Plaintiff fails to comply, the Court will dismiss this case. If Plaintiff elects to amend its complaint, it should also bolster its allegations relating to personal jurisdiction as to each Defendant; the mere maintenance of a website accessible in Illinois remains insufficient to confer personal jurisdiction. See, e.g., Am. Bridal & Prom Indus. Ass'n, Inc. v. The Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 192 F. Supp. 3d 924, 93435 (N.D. Ill. 2016) (simply alleging the existence of purported counterfeiting via an interactive website is not enough, by itself, to confer personal jurisdiction).
