| 09/05/2024 | FULL SATISFACTION of Judgment |
| 09/04/2024 | DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Martha M. Pacold on 9/4/2024: Mailed notice |
| 09/04/2024 | ORDER: No defendant has responded to plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment, 40. The motion is granted. Based on the evidence submitted in support of the temporary restraining order and the motion for entry of default and default judgment, and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, plaintiff has established that the infringement was willful, that damages should be awarded in the amount stated in the attached order, and that a permanent injunction should be entered. Plaintiff has shown that the infringement of its design patents causes it irreparable harm in the form of diminished goodwill and brand confidence, damage to plaintiff's reputation, loss of exclusivity, and loss of future sales; that monetary damages are inadequate to address these harms; and that the public interest would not be disserved by a permanent injunction. No defendant has appeared to argue otherwise, thus, the court also finds that the balance of the hardships favors an injunction. The $10,000 surety bond posted by plaintiff is hereby released to plaintiff's counsel. The Clerk of the Court is directed to return the surety bond previously deposited with the Clerk of the Court to plaintiff's counsel, The Law Offices of Konrad Sherinian, LLC, 1755 Park Street, Suite 200, Naperville, IL 60563, via certified mail. Enter Default Judgment Order. Terminate civil case. Signed by the Honorable Martha M. Pacold on 9/4/2024: Mailed notice |

| 08/01/2024 | MOTION by Plaintiff Yanzhe Lu to amend/correct the previously filed Schedule A to the Complaint 附件： 1:(Exhibit First Amended Schedule A) |
| 07/24/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has taken the motion for preliminary injunction, 26, under advisement and will consider the motion unopposed if no defendant appears and objects by 8/2/2024. Plaintiff shall serve defendants with this notice. For the reasons stated in the court's orders entering and extending the TRO, as well as in plaintiff's earlier motion, 23, to extend the TRO, the TRO is further extended to and including the date on which the court adjudicates the motion for a preliminary injunction. See H-D Mich., LLC v. Hellenic Duty Free Shops S.A., 694 F.3d 827, 843-45 (7th Cir. 2012). Because this extension exceeds the maximum duration for a TRO under FRCP 65(b), this extension "becomes in effect a preliminary injunction that is appealable, but the order remains effective." Id. at 844. |

| 07/19/2024 | SUMMONS Issued as to Defendant The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A |
| 07/11/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's ex parte motion to extend the TRO, 23 is granted. Under Rule 65(b)(2), the court finds good cause to extend the TRO for an additional 14 days to prevent defendants from modifying registration data and content, changing hosts, redirecting traffic to other websites in their control, and moving any assets from accounts in U.S.-based financial institutions, including service provider accounts, to offshore accounts. The court's TRO, 21, entered on 7/2/24 is extended until 7/30/24. |
| 07/09/2024 | MOTION by Plaintiff Yanzhe Lu for extension of time |
| 07/08/2024 | SURETY BOND in the amount of $ 10,000 posted by Yanzhe Lu. (Document not scanned) |
| 07/02/2024 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Martha M. Pacold on 7/2/2024: |
| 07/02/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: For the reasons set forth in the motions (6, 11) filed by plaintiff, the supporting memoranda (7) and the temporary restraining order, plaintiff's motions to seal, 11, motion for leave to file excess pages, 12, and for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, expedited discovery, and service of process by email or electronic publication, 6, are granted. Plaintiff's filings support proceeding (for the time being) on an ex parte basis. Specifically, were defendants to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, it is likely assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the evidence submitted by plaintiff shows a substantial likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), the harm to plaintiff is irreparable, and an injunction is in the public interest. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it effectively communicates the pendency of this action to defendants. As other judges in this district have noted, there may be reason to question both the propriety of the joinder of all defendants in this one action and whether plaintiff genuinely intends to pursue an accounting, but at this preliminary stage, plaintiff has provided sufficient evidence of coordinated activity and the prospect of an accounting to justify the requested relief as to all defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and to implement the asset freeze. If any defendant appears and objects, the court will revisit the asset freeze and joinder. Plaintiff shall deposit with the Clerk of Court ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00), either cash or surety bond, as security. |
| 06/28/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: By 7/1/24, plaintiff shall comply with the procedures listed on the court's website and submit to the court's Proposed Order Inbox (Proposed_Order_Pacold@ilnd.uscourts.gov) a proposed TRO order and a track changes version showing any differences between plaintiff's proposed order and the court's template order. |
| 05/31/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has reviewed plaintiff's response, 16, 17, to the court's 5/1/24 minute entry, 15, which directed plaintiff to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to comply with the joinder restrictions in 35 U.S.C. § 299. For purposes of the show-cause order, 15, the court finds that plaintiff has discharged its obligation to show that the joinder requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 299 and Rule 20 have been met. See Oakley, Inc. v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule "A", No. 21-cv-536 (N.D. Ill. Mar. 6, 2021) (Docket No. 14). |
