| 11/30/2022 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Manish S. Shah on 11/30/2022. Notices mailed. |
| 11/30/2022 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Plaintiff's ex parte motion for excess pages and renewed motion for a temporary restraining order, asset restraint, expedited discovery, and electronic service of process 23 24 are granted. The plaintiff's written submissions establish that if defendants were informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, assets would likely be redirected, defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping the infringement, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the submitted evidence establishes a likelihood of success on the merits, the harm to plaintiff is irreparable and an injunction is in the public interest because infringement interferes with the plaintiff's ability to control its intellectual property. Those rights cannot be fully compensated by money damages. There is no countervailing harm to defendants from an order directing them to stop infringement. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it is an effective, perhaps the most effective, way to communicate with defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and implement the asset freeze. If any defendant were to appear and object, the court will take a fresh look at the asset freeze, joinder, and personal jurisdiction. A $10,000 bond is sufficient to secure the injunctive relief. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. Notices mailed. |

| 11/15/2022 | AMENDED complaint by Bill Nye Productions, Inc. against The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Amended Schedule A Hereto 附件： 1:(Exhibit 1) |
| 11/15/2022 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: The court discharges its rule to show cause, with the observation that counsel's implicit explanation that other judges allow plaintiffs to submit orders seeking relief that is not supported by plaintiff's filings is not a good excuse for the practice. Especially in Schedule A cases filed with great frequency in this district, plaintiff's counsel should use extra care when submitting proposals to any judge of this court. The motion for a TRO and for excess pages 10 9 are terminated as moot based on counsel's representation that they will refile. The motion to file under seal 6 is granted. Notices mailed. |
| 11/14/2022 | RESPONSE by Plaintiff Bill Nye Productions, Inc. Response to Rule to Show Cause |
| 11/07/2022 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Counsel for plaintiff submitted a proposed order to the court that included 201 online marketplace accounts, but the Schedule A filed with plaintiff's complaint listed 139 online marketplace accounts (the same number of defendant names/aliases). There is no explanation for the mismatch. Counsel's motion for a TRO and proposed order seek a domain name transfer and purport to target Defendant Domain Names. But there are no defendant domain names in plaintiff's complaint or Schedule A. This court has repeatedly told the firm of Hughes Socol Piers Resnick & Dyn to stop submitting proposed orders that seemingly cut and paste from other cases and are not tied to the filings in the case. This court has repeatedly identified its concern that the firm submits orders seeking domain name transfers when no such domain names are identified in the filings, and there is no evidence submitted that defendants run websites (as opposed to online marketplace accounts). Attorneys Michael Hierl, Robert McMurray, and William Kalbac shall show cause why they should not be sanctioned for this practice. Counsel shall file their show-cause response by 11/14/22. Notices mailed. notice |
