| 05/20/2024 | DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 5/20/2024. Mailed notice |
| 05/20/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: No remaining defendant has responded to plaintiff's motion for entry of default judgment. Accordingly, the motion 33 is granted. Based on the evidence previously submitted by plaintiff and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, plaintiff has established that a permanent injunction should be entered. The infringement of plaintiff's copyrights irreparably harms plaintiff and confuses the public. This infringement was willful and statutory damages are awarded. After considering the nature of the products, the price point, the absence of any concrete evidence of lost profits or high-volume infringement by defendants (plaintiff has failed to seek an accounting of profits), the value of plaintiff's brand, and the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the Court concludes that $50,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages. Plaintiff has also certified and established 37 that it provided electronic notice to defendants of the objection deadline, but no objection to the motion for entry of default judgment has been filed on behalf of any defendant. Because no default judgment hearing has been requested, the default judgment hearing tentatively set for 5/23/2024 is stricken. The Clerk of the Court is directed to return the surety bond posted in the amount of one hundred ninety-two thousand dollar ($192,000) to Plaintiff or his counsel, Keith Vogt, Ltd., 33 West Jackson Boulevard, #2W, Chicago, Illinois, 60604. Enter separate Default Final Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice |

| 05/02/2024 | CERTIFICATE of Service by Plaintiff Gerald J. Lofaro regarding set/reset hearings, 36 |
| 05/02/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Before the Court is plaintiff's motion 33 for entry of default and default judgment against the Defendants identified in First Amended Schedule A with the exception of the defendants that have settled with Plaintiff. All remaining defendants have failed either to plead or to otherwise appear to defend against this action. Accordingly, an order of default is entered under Rule 55(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Any objections to the motion for entry of default judgment must be filed on or before 5/10/2024. If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. The Court will also rule on the papers unless a hearing is requested by 5/10/2024. A hearing, to be conducted via teleconferencing, may be requested by filing a Request for Hearing as a separate entry on the docket. Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. A tentative default judgment hearing is set for 5/23/2024 at 9:15 a.m. Mailed notice |
