10/23/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment [33] against the remaining defendants identified in Amended Schedule A to the Complaint [9]. All remaining defendants have failed either to plead or to otherwise appear to defend against this action.

Any objections to the motion for entry of default judgment by the defaulted Defendants must be filed on or before 11/5/24. If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining affected Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. No appearance is necessary on 10/30/24. Emailed notice. |

10/03/2024 | PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 10/3/2024. Emailed notice. |
10/03/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Telephonic motion hearing held. Counsel for Plaintiff appeared. Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 23, which the Court now considers unopposed because no Defendant filed a notice of objection by the 10/2/24 deadline or appeared at the hearing. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk that Defendants will transfer relevant assets beyond the Court's reach. For these reasons, as well as the reasons provided in the whole of Plaintiff's filings and as stated by the Court on the record and in connection with entry and extension of the TRO 16 17 21, the Court is persuaded that Plaintiff has satisfied the requirements for a preliminary injunction. In addition, the Court finds that the balance of harms favors Plaintiff and that a preliminary injunction serves the public interest by, among other things, protecting consumers from the marketing of counterfeit goods. Plaintiff has also certified and established 22 that it provided electronic notice to defendants of the pendency of this case and provided a link to a website containing relevant case documents, but no objection to the motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed on behalf of any defendant. Enter Preliminary Injunction order. Plaintiff's counsel is directed to ensure that all defendants listed on Amended Schedule A 9 are added to the court's docket within five business days. The Clerk is requested to unseal any previously sealed documents. Emailed notice. |
09/26/2024 | CERTIFICATE of Service by Plaintiff Betty's Best, Inc. regarding order on motion for preliminary injunction, order on motion for extension of time, terminate hearings, set motion and R&R deadlines/hearings, [28] |
09/24/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction [23] is taken under advisement. A telephonic motion hearing is set for 10/3/24, at 9:45AM. Attorneys/parties may appear by dialing: 1-650-479-3207 and entering access code: 2311 499 1046. No attendee code is required. Please review in advance the policies governing telephonic hearings that can be found on Judge Hunt's webpage on the court website. The motion may be considered unopposed as to any Defendant who does not file an objection by 10/2/24 and/or appear at the telephonic hearing. For the reasons stated in the Court's initial order entering the TRO and the order extending the TRO, the TRO is extended to and including the date 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 Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b), this extension "becomes in effect a preliminary injunction that is appealable, but the order remains effective." Id. at 844. Consequently, Plaintiff's emergency TRO extension motion [26] is terminated as moot. Plaintiff must serve a copy of this minute order upon all affected Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and promptly file proof of that service. No appearance is necessary on 10/1/24. Emailed notice. |

09/03/2024 | SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 9/3/2024. Emailed notice. |
09/03/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's ex parte motion for entry of a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, expedited discovery, and service of process by e-mail and/or electronic publication 11 is granted. 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. The Court finds that (1) the submitted evidence establishes a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois); (2) the harm to Plaintiff is irreparable and cannot be fully compensated by money damages; (3) an injunction is in the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit goods and infringement interferes with Plaintiff's ability to control its intellectual property; and (4) 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 way to communicate with these online marketplace defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify Defendants and implement the asset freeze. If any Defendant were to appear and object, the Court will revisit the asset freeze, joinder, and personal jurisdiction. A $1,000.00 bond is sufficient to secure the injunctive relief. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. No appearance is necessary on 9/5/24. Emailed notice. |
09/03/2024 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's Motion to Seal and Proceed Under Pseudonym 6 is granted in part and denied in part. Schedule A [8-1], Amended Schedule A 9, and Exhibit 1 to the Declaration of Sarah M. Owen [12-2] shall remain sealed until further court order. However, Plaintiff has not established any basis for sealing its identity, information concerning its intellectual property, and other miscellaneous content filed under seal. See Union Oil Co. of Cal. v. Leavell, 220 F.3d 562, 567-68 (7th Cir. 2000) ("Many a litigant would prefer that the subject matter of a case. be kept from the curious (including its business rivals and customers), but the tradition that litigation is open to the public is of very long standing."). The Clerk of Court is directed, forthwith, to (1) unseal all prior filings except those specifically listed above; and (2) update the docket and case title to reflect that Plaintiff's name is "Betty's Best, Inc." Emailed notice. |
