11/20/2024 MAILED Trademark report with certified copy of minute order dated 11/19/2024 to Patent Trademark Office, Alexandria VA
11/19/2024 MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1) and the Notice of Dismissal 12, this action is being dismissed without prejudice. All pending motions and deadlines are terminated as moot. All documents filed under seal shall be unsealed. Civil case terminated. Emailed notice.
11/18/2024 NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by XYZ Corporation
11/08/2024 MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file certain documents under seal and temporarily proceed under a pseudonym 8 is granted in part and denied in part. Plaintiff's submissions establish that, were Defendants to learn of these proceedings before the execution of a temporary restraining order, there is a significant risk that Defendants could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Conversely, there are no exceptional circumstances that would justify allowing Plaintiff to conceal its own identity: Plaintiff anticipates filing an ex parte TRO motion upon entry of this order, and the identity of the defendant entities will be placed under seal during the pendency of the ex parte proceedings. Given these protections for Plaintiff's legitimate interests, the countervailing strong public interest in knowing who is seeking recourse in the federal courts compels the Court to deny Plaintiff's request to conceal its own identity, even initially. As the Seventh Circuit has explained, "We have repeatedly voiced our disfavor of parties proceeding anonymously, as anonymous litigation runs contrary to the rights of the public to have open judicial proceedings and to know who is using court facilities and procedures funded by public taxes. To proceed anonymously, a party must demonstrate exceptional circumstances that outweigh both the public policy in favor of identified parties and the prejudice to the opposing party that would result from anonymity." Doe v. Village of Deerfield, 819 F.3d 372, 376-77 (7th Cir. 2016); see also Doe v. Loyola Univ. Chicago, 100 F.4th 910, 913 (7th Cir. 2024). Thus, the request to seal Plaintiff's unredacted complaint 2 (which, unlike the original complaint 1, complies with FRCP 10(a) by "nam[ing] all the parties" including Plaintiff), the exhibits containing Plaintiff's intellectual property registrations [2-1], [2-2], and Plaintiff's brief in support of joinder 7, [7-3] is denied. Conversely, subject to unsealing at an appropriate time, Plaintiff may file under seal any anticipated TRO motion and accompanying documents. The Clerk's Office is directed, forthwith, to (1) update the docket to reflect that the Plaintiff's name is "Legend Pictures, LLC"; and (2) unseal the following filings: 2, [2-1], [2-2], 7, [7-3], and [9-1]. The documents filed at [2-3], 6, [7-1], and [7-2] shall remain under seal pending further order of the Court. Emailed notice.
