03/24/2023 ENTERED JUDGMENT Signed by the courtroom deputy on 03/24/2023. Emailed notice
03/24/2023 FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 03/24/2023. Emailed notice
03/24/2023 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On review of the Plaintiff's motion 35 for default judgment and the required supplement 39, the motion is granted in part. As explained in the order, statutory damages are granted in the amount of $1,000 per Defaulting Defendant. A permanent injunction will be entered in light of the willfulness established by the default (as skeptical as the Court is on the marks' validity). The supplement 39 was mistakenly filed as a motion, so it is terminated as incorrectly filed. The tracking status hearing of 04/21/2023 is vacated. A separate AO-450 judgment will be entered. Civil case terminated. Emailed notice

01/30/2023 MOTION by Plaintiff Emoji Company GmbH for extension of time Plaintiff's Ex Parte motion to Extend the Temporary Restraining Order
01/23/2023 SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 01/23/2023. Emailed notice
01/23/2023 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion 14 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). To the extent that the restraint might be too broad, the Defendant 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. By 01/25/2023, 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). The Plaintiff's request for electronic service of process is granted. The extra-pages motion 13 is granted. To track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called), a status hearing is set for 02/03/2023 at 8:30 a.m. The Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) no later than 01/30/2023. Emailed notice
