STATUS Report by Grumpy Cat Limited

ATTORNEY Appearance for Defendants MoMoka-Stylelife, LILILOVE-SHOP, Narustore, Novelshop, Lucy Delia by Adam Edward Urbanczyk

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: On February 2, 2021, Plaintiff's counsel filed a certification that he effectuated service of process by email on January 28, 2021. (Dckt. No. 41) Since then, over two months have passed. And so has the deadline to respond to the complaint. But for whatever reason, Plaintiff has not pursued default. This Court issued an Order on March 8, 2021, about the overdue responses to the complaint. But still, Plaintiff has not sought default. By April 14, 2021, Plaintiff must file a status report and update the Court on whether it intends to proceed with this case. The case cannot simply linger on the docket. A motion for the entry of default is due by April 16, 2021. A failure to comply will lead to dismissal. Mailed notice.

Amended Schedule A STATEMENT by Grumpy Cat Limited

附件：

1:Amended Schedule A

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: On March 17, 2021, this Court issued an Order governing any future filing of a notice of voluntary dismissal. (Dckt. No. 68) In particular, this Court ordered that "[e]ach notice of voluntary dismissal must attach as an exhibit an updated list of the remaining, non-settling Defendants." That requirement is no small thing. Plaintiff continues to pepper the docket with notices of dismissal, leaving the Court to wonder how many Defendants remain in the case and who they are. It is Plaintiff's job to inform the Court which Defendants remain in the case. It is not the Court's job to figure it out. Since the Court entered that Order, Plaintiff has filed two notices of voluntary dismissal, and neither one attached the Court-ordered list of the remaining, non-settling Defendants. Plaintiff shall file a list of all remaining Defendants by April 7, 2021. Going forward, a failure to comply may lead to appropriate relief, including dismissal. Mailed notice.

NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by Grumpy Cat Limited Plaintiff's Notice of Voluntary Dismissal

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: In a little more than one month, Plaintiff has filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal eight times, and counting. Going forward, Plaintiff shall not file more than one Notice of Voluntary Dismissal per week. The repetitive filings add bulk and girth to the docket, making it unnecessarily unwieldy. A better approach is to file a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal at the end of each week. Each Notice of Voluntary Dismissal must attach as an exhibit an updated list of the remaining, non-settling Defendants. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the Joint Initial Status Report (Dckt. No. 66). The deadline for amendments to the pleadings is June 1, 2021. Fact discovery will close on August 1, 2021. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Defendants' answers to the complaint were due on February 18, 2021, more than two weeks ago. But Plaintiff has not pursued it. Plaintiff shall file a status report by March 15, 2021. Plaintiff has filed a notice of voluntary dismissal five times, telling this Court which Defendants have left the case, but not telling the Court which Defendants remain. By March 10, 2021, Plaintiff shall file an updated list of the remaining Defendants on Schedule A. Mailed notice.

NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by Grumpy Cat Limited Plaintiff's Notice of Voluntary Dismissal

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the answer and counterclaim (Dckt. No. 57), which was signed by "Riom," the defendant. Presumably "Riom" is an entity. If so, the filing needs to be signed by an attorney. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a). An entity cannot proceed pro se and cannot sign a filing in a corporate name. An attorney purported to file a "limited appearance" for "Riom," but yet did not sign the filing. (Dckt. No. 56) Either Riom has a lawyer, or it doesn't, but if so, the lawyer needs to sign the filing as required by the Federal Rules. Maybe "Riom" is a person. Natural persons, unlike entities, can proceed pro se. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a). But if "Riom" is a person, then presumably "Riom" has a first and last name. Even Oprah, Bono, and Eminem have full names. As things stand, the Court does not know who signed the filing, so it is stricken. Mailed notice.

ATTORNEY Appearance for Defendant The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A Hereto by Shengmao Mu

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: This Court previously ordered Plaintiff to file a statement disclosing the amount of frozen funds, by defendant. (Dckt. No. 44). Plaintiff later did so. (Dckt. Nos. 50 - 51) In the Statement, Plaintiff requested leave to file the information under seal. As an aside, Plaintiff should have filed a motion if Plaintiff wanted to file something under seal. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 7(b)(1) ("A request for a court order must be made by motion."); see also Local Rule 26.2(c). The difference is not mere semantics. A motion shows up differently on the Court's system than other filings. So, when a party fails to call a request a "motion," it creates risk that the request could get lost. In any event, there is no reason why this filing needs to be under seal. It is merely a tally of the amount of money sealed by Court Order. It does not contain confidential information (such as account numbers). Docket No. 51 is unsealed. Mailed notice.

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION ORDER Signed by the Honorable Steven C. Seeger on 2/4/2021. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's Renewed Motion for Entry of a Preliminary Injunction (Dckt. No. 33) is granted. Order to follow. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Status hearing held on February 3, 2021 by telephone. Plaintiff's counsel shall serve a copy of this Order and the Order dated Jan. 29, 2021 (Dckt. No. 38) on his client and file a certificate of service. Given the number of mistakes in filings, the Court has little choice but to issue the following directive to Plaintiff's counsel. Going forward, any filing by Plaintiff must include as an attachment a Certification of Proofreading by all counsel of record by Plaintiff (not merely the attorney doing to filing). The Certification must state that the undersigned counsel has carefully and personally read the filing and given it a close proofread. The Certification also must state that, to the best of counsel's ability, the filing does not contain any typographical errors, formatting problems, or other mistakes or inaccuracies. By February 12, 2021, Plaintiff must file two documents on the Court's docket. First, Plaintiff must file a statement identifying, by defendant, what accounts were frozen, and the amount of money frozen in each account. Second, Plaintiff shall file a schedule listing all the "Grumpy Cat" lawsuits pending in the Northern District of Illinois, including the case numbers and the names of the presiding District Judges. The Court and counsel discussed the draft preliminary injunction order. Counsel shall make the necessary changes and submit a revised draft to the court's proposed order inbox. Mailed notice.

CERTIFICATE of Service by Plaintiff Grumpy Cat Limited

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the certificate of service filed by Plaintiff's counsel. (Dckt. No. 37) The declaration states under penalty of perjury that he completed service of process "by electronic publication of the Defendant Domain Names which are transferred to Plaintiff's control." Id. at para. 2. A few paragraphs later, the declaration once again refers to a "website to which the Defendant Domain Names that have been transferred to Plaintiffs' counsel now redirect." Id. at para. 4. What, exactly, was Plaintiff's counsel referring to? This Court did not authorize any domain names to be transferred to Plaintiff. Plaintiff's counsel shall file an explanation by February 2, 2021. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Status hearing held on January 29, 2021 by telephone. Plaintiff failed to effectuate service of process in a timely manner. On January 19, 2021, this Court directed Plaintiff to "give notice to Defendants as required by Rule 65." (Dckt. No. 32) But Plaintiff did not take care of that obligation until January 28, 2021, meaning nine days later. They did not give notice to the Defendants until the day before the hearing. (And even then, based on the certificate of service, it appears Plaintiff neglected to serve a copy of the minute order setting the preliminary injunction hearing. Dckt. No. 37 They served process, meaning that they served the complaint and the summons, and they served the motion for a preliminary injunction, too. But by all appearances, they apparently did not provide notice of the hearing.) Some or perhaps most of the Defendants are presumably overseas, so they cannot receive notice at the last minute. By failing to act in a timely manner, Plaintiff's counsel was unprepared to proceed with the preliminary injunction hearing today. They did not give adequate notice to Defendants, forcing this Court to reschedule yet again. They also did not give this Court advance notice that they were unprepared to proceed (say, by filing a motion to reschedule the hearing, or contacting the Courtroom Deputy), and thus needlessly occupied this Court's calendar. By the end of the day, January 29, 2021, Plaintiff shall serve a copy of this Order on Defendants and file a certificate of service. Status hearing continued for February 3, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing. The call-in number is (888) 684-8852 and the access code is 9369830. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings. Violation of these prohibitions may result in sanctions, including removal of court issued media credentials, restricted entry to future hearings, denial of entry to future hearings, or any other sanctions deemed necessary by the Court. Plaintiff's counsel shall provide a copy of this Order to their client, and shall explain why they were unprepared to proceed, and shall file a certificate of service with the Court. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction (Dckt. No. 27). A status hearing is set for January 19, 2021 at 9:30 a.m. Plaintiff shall serve a copy of this minute order on Defendants by email and thus provide notice of the hearing, and shall file a certificate of service.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion to clarify the record (Dckt. No. 25) is hereby granted. Plaintiff reported that it did, in fact, post a bond of $250,000 as this Court previously directed. Mailed notice.

MOTION by Plaintiff Grumpy Cat Limited to clarify Plaintiff's Motion to Clarify the Record

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the notice about a surety bond "in the amount of $10,000." (Dckt. No. 23) The Court reminds Plaintiff that the Court required a bond of $250,000, not $10,000, in light of the fact that Plaintiff is seeking emergency relief against 250 Defendants. Plaintiff must promptly post the remainder of the bond, and do so by January 15, 2021, or the Court may vacate any Order granting equitable relief. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's ex parte motion to extend the temporary restraining order (Dckt. No. 20) is hereby granted. As requested, the Court extends the TRO by two weeks. The temporary restraining order will expire at 5:00 p.m. on January 13, 2021. Plaintiff's second ex parte motion to extend the temporary restraining order (Dckt. No. 21) is denied as duplicative of the first motion. Mailed notice.

MOTION by Plaintiff Grumpy Cat Limited for extension of time Plaintiff's Ex Parte Motion to Extend the Temporary Restraining Order

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: In connection with the motion for a temporary restraining order, the Court received a Word version of a proposed order. It appears to be a draft that plaintiff's counsel uses in many other Schedule A cases, except for information about the individual Plaintiff. The draft posed a number of formatting challenges, and required significant time and attention by the Court. (The indentations, tabs, and paragraph numbering were particularly problematic.) The Court also made a number of substantive changes to the draft temporary restraining order. A redline is attached. Going forward, in any future Schedule A case filed before Judge Seeger, plaintiff's counsel must submit a draft that is free of issues and that incorporates the considerable changes that this Court made in the case at hand. Continuing to use the generic draft that the Court received, and simply plugging in the names of new clients in future Schedule A changes, is not a viable option. A failure to comply with this Order may lead to denial of the motions, and/or may delay any relief from this Court. Mailed notice (Additional attachment(s) added on 12/16/2020: # 1 Proposed TRO (Redline)). Modified on 12/29/2020.

SEALED TEMPORARY Restraining Order Signed by the Honorable Steven C. Seeger on 12/16/2020. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's ex parte motion for temporary restraining order (Dckt. No. 8) is hereby granted in part. Order to follow. At this point, the Court declines to order the transfer or disabling of the Defendant domain names. The Court denies that request without prejudice. Plaintiff can try again if it so chooses, but must make a more fulsome showing that such relief is warranted. Plaintiff's motion for excess pages (Dckt. No. 7) is hereby granted. Plaintiff's motion to seal (Dckt. No. 5) is hereby granted. Mailed notice.
