04/02/2024 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 04/02/2024. Emailed notice |
04/02/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion 12 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). (It is enough that the Lanham Act support the restraint, setting aside the design-patent claim for the moment.) 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 motion 6 for leave to file under seal is granted in light of the asset-restraint goal. The Plaintiff's motion 11 to use extra pages is granted. By 04/08/2024, the Plaintiff shall email a redacted version of the TRO that can be entered publicly (redacting the names of Defendants and omitting Amended Schedule A). To track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called), a status hearing is set for 04/12/2024 at 8:30 a.m. The Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) no later than 04/09/2024.
