| 08/26/2024 | ENTERED JUDGMENT Signed by the courtroom deputy on 08/26/2024. Emailed notice |
| 08/26/2024 | DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 08/26/2024. Emailed notice |
| 08/26/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: (1.) On review of the supplement to the default-judgment motion, the supplement pronounces that "these exact screenshots were referenced by Plaintiff in Plaintiff's Motion for Ex Parte Temporary Restraining Order [Dkt. No. 3], Exhibit B, pages 1-3." R. 28 at 1. But R. 3 is a one-page PDF, a cover motion for the TRO. There is no exhibit to it. In future cases, the screenshots must be part of an exhibit incorporated by the operative complaint so that a default definitively establishes the alleged facts. (2.) The supplement also says that "Plaintiff continues to be severely prejudiced without entry of default and default judgment." R. 28 at 2. But it is the Plaintiff that filed the Amended Complaint without seeking to seal the new Schedule A. It is the Plaintiff that did not move, after filing the Amended Complaint, for an asset restraint. It is the Plaintiff that filed an incomplete motion for default judgment. (3.) On review of the default-judgment motion and the supplement, the motion is granted in part. Statutory damages are awarded in the amount of fifteen-thousand dollars ($15,000). In light of the willfulness established by the default, a permanent injunction is entered. (4.) For future reference, the judgment order was edited as follows. On page 1, in the title of the Court, "United State" was edited to "United States." On page 2, first paragraph, first sentence, a clause was added to clarify that there was no adversarial presentation on personal jurisdiction. On page 3, Paragraph 1, the list of persons bound by the order was edited to conform to Civil Rule 65(b)(2). On page 4, Paragraph 3, and on page 5, Paragraph 6, the edits are intended to limit the order to the particular Online Marketplace identified on Schedule A. On page 4, Paragraph 5, modifying the statutory damages to an appropriate figure. (5.) A separate AO-450 judgment shall be entered. The status hearing of 09/06/2024 is vacated. Civil case terminated.

| 08/23/2024 | SUPPLEMENT to motion for entry of default, motion for default judgment[24] 附件： 1:Exhibit |
| 08/22/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On review of the default-judgment motion, R. 25, the Plaintiff shall file a supplement that (1) provides screenshots of the Defendant's online site and the allegedly infringing goods; and (2) identify (by citing to the PDF pagination of the pertinent filing) where in the amended complaint or any of its attachments, R. 15, R. 15-1 through R. 15-7, the screenshots were previously provided (if indeed they were). The supplement is due by 08/29/2024. The tracking status hearing of 08/23/2024 is reset to 09/06/2024 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |
| 08/15/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The tracking status hearing of 08/16/2024 is reset to 08/23/2024 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |

| 07/15/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On review of the status report, R. 21, and given the answer deadline of 07/23/2024, the tracking status hearing of 07/19/2024 is reset to 08/02/2024 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the parties shall file the joint initial status report by 07/26/2024. If the Defendant does not answer on time, then the Defendant is deemed in default, and the Plaintiff shall file a motion for default judgment in a sum certain on 07/26/2024. Emailed notice |

| 06/10/2024 | LIMITED EXPEDITED DISCOVERY AND ALTERNATIVE SERVICE ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 06/10/2024. Emailed notice |
| 05/31/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion for limited expedited discovery and alternative service [16] is granted, in light of the need to identify reliable email addresses to which to serve notice and the unlikelihood of accomplishing service at a reliable physical address (but if the response to discovery reveals a reliable physical address, then the Plaintiff must notify the Court and seek appropriate relief). The tracking status hearing of 06/07/2024 is reset to 07/19/2024 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the parties shall file the joint initial status report by 07/12/2024, or the Plaintiff will file a status report if the Defendant has not appeared. Emailed notice |

| 05/24/2024 | AMENDED complaint by Funny Soul LLC against Individuals, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations on Schedule A 附件： 1:Appendix 2:Declaration 3:Declaration 4:Exhibit 5:Exhibit 6:Exhibit 7:Exhibit |
| 05/20/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: (1.) On review of the complaint and the TRO brief, the Court raises the propriety of joinder of the 205 Defendants. The Plaintiff shall review the opinion in Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, Case No. 19-cv-7878, 2020 WL 433870 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 27, 2020), and file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder by 05/29/2024. In lieu of the supplemental memorandum, by the same deadline, the Plaintiff may file an amended complaint with (a) one defendant or (b) a subset of the defendants along with a memo explaining why joinder of those specific defendants is proper. (2.) *****In future filings on this docket and in future cases before Judge Chang,***** the Plaintiff shall not refer to the sealed version of the complaint as the "Amended Complaint," R. 2 at 1. That is incorrect and confusing nomenclature, because R. 2 purports to be just the sealed version of the Complaint, not an Amended Complaint (which has a special meaning under Civil Rule 15(a)). (3.) Similarly, do not over seal filings for no good cause: the barebones motions, R. 3, R. 5, do not need to be sealed. They do not refer to the names of the Defendants. The Clerk's Office shall unseal R. 3, R. 5. (4.) Lastly, on CM/ECF, do not designate memoranda in support of a motion as the "response," R. 4, R. 6. That again confuses the docket because those memoranda are not "responses." (5.) To track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called), a tracking status hearing is set for 06/07/2024 at 8:30 a.m. (6.) The notices of motion of 05/22/2024 are terminated.
