FINAL DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 5/9/2025. Mailed notice

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 34 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 5/15/2025 is stricken. The Clerk of the Court is directed to return the surety bond posted in the amount of five-thousand dollar ($5,000) to Plaintiff or its counsel, Sullivan & Carter LLP. Enter separate Final Default Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Before the Court is plaintiff's motion 34 for entry of default and default judgment against the defendants identified in Amended Schedule A. 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.

The Court will also rule on the papers unless a hearing is requested by 5/8/2025. 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 defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service.

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 4/1/2025.Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 28 is granted. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk 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 in connection with entry of the TRO, 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 31 that it provided electronic notice to defendants of the pendency of this action and the motion, 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 Schedule A are added to the court's docket within five business days. The Clerk is requested to unseal any previously-sealed documents. Because no preliminary injunction hearing has been requested, the preliminary injunction hearing tentatively set for 4/2/2025 is stricken. Summons was issued on 3/24/2025, and Defendants' responses to the complaint are due by 4/16/2025. Plaintiff should file any motion for entry of default and default judgment by 4/30/2025. If there are any remaining defendants whom default and default judgment are not being sought, Plaintiff is ordered to file a status report identifying each defendant against whom this case is proceeding and state whether the parties anticipate a settlement or further litigation. A telephone status hearing is set for 5/7/2025 at 9:15 a.m.Mailed notice

SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 3/5/2025. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for leave 11 is granted as to the request to file documents under seal and denied as to the request to proceed under a pseudonym, ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery 14 is granted, and motion for electronic service of process 16 is granted. Exceptional circumstances have not been shown to proceed anonymously. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(a) ("The title of the complaint must name all the parties[.]"); Doe v. Village of Deerfield, 189 F.3d 372, 377 (7th Cir. 2016) ("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."); XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2022 WL 180151, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 20, 2022) ("There is insufficient evidence. that Schedule A defendants are taking advantage of the case-tracking option to such an extent that it is materially impeding brand owners' enforcement efforts."); XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2020 WL 6681360, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 12, 2020) ("No-name litigation is the rare exception, not the Rule."). Accordingly, by 3/7/2025, Plaintiff shall file a second amended complaint that lists Plaintiff's true name. Moreover, Plaintiff's submissions establish that, were defendants to learn of these proceedings before the execution of plaintiff's requested preliminary injunctive relief, there is a significant risk that defendants could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Accordingly, subject to unsealing at an appropriate time, plaintiff may file under seal the documents identified in the motion to seal. The Temporary Restraining Order being entered along with this minute order shall also be placed under seal. In addition, for the purpose of the motions cited above, plaintiff's filings support proceeding on an ex parte basis at this time. Specifically, and as noted above, were defendants to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, the Court finds that it is likely that their assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. Further, the evidence submitted by plaintiff shows a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), that the harm to plaintiff is irreparable, and that an injunction is in the public interest. An injunction serves the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit products, and 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 effectively communicates the pendency of this action to defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and to implement the asset freeze. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order at 11:15 a.m. on 3/5/2025. Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) if appropriate no later than 3/12/2025. Telephone status hearing is set for 3/19/2025 at 9:15 a.m. Finally, the notice of presentment 18 is stricken as the Court does not require the filing of a separate notice of presentment. See the Court's web page (Civil "[m]otions should not be noticed for presentment."). Mailed notice
