MOTION by Plaintiffs Bryan Fletcher, Garrett Fletcher for extension of time of Temporary Restraining Order

Registry Deposit Information Form by Bryan Fletcher, Garrett Fletcher

SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER signed by the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado on 7/13/2023.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado:For the reasons set forth in Plaintiff's motions, the supporting memoranda, and the temporary restraining order, Plaintiff's motions for leave to file under seal [3], for electronic service of process [16], and for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery [11], are granted. Plaintiff's filings support proceeding (for the time being) on an ex parte basis. Specifically, were Defendant to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, it is likely assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating Plaintiff's interests in identifying the individuals and entities operating Defendant, stopping Defendant's infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the evidence submitted by Plaintiff shows a substantial likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), the harm to Plaintiff is irreparable, and an injunction is in the public interest. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it effectively communicates the pendency of this action to Defendants. See, e.g., Oakley, Inc. v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified in Schedule "A," No. 20-CV-05049, 2021 WL 2894166, at *5 (N.D. Ill. July 9, 2021) (finding electronic service proper in similar circumstances). Expedited discovery is warranted to identify Defendants and to implement the asset freeze. Plaintiff shall deposit with the Clerk of Court one thousand dollars ($1,000.00), either cash or surety bond, as security.
