SEALED Ex Parte Temporary Restraining Order with Assest Freeze and Other Equitable Relief Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 5/20/2025.Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal [22], ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, expedited discovery and service of process by email [18], and motion to exceed page limitation [21] are granted. 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 2:00 p.m. on 5/20/2025. Plaintiff shall file the TRO extension motion (or a preliminary injunction motion) if appropriate no later than 5/27/2025. Telephone status hearing is set for 6/3/2025 at 9:15 a.m. The call-in number is (855) 244-8681 and the access code is 172 628 1276##. Attorneys of record may not use speakerphones during the status hearing. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing but will be placed on mute. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings. Mailed notice

MOTION by Plaintiff Dorina Zieske for temporary restraining order

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: By 5/9/2025, Plaintiff shall file a status report with an update on the case. Mailed notice

ORDER Signed by the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani on 4/21/2025: The Court has reviewed the plaintiff's memorandum on joinder [15]. For the reasons stated in the attached Order, the Court determines, within its discretion, that plaintiff has failed to satisfy her burden to show that joinder of 275 defendants is proper in this matter under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). Accordingly, the Court dismisses defendant Nos. 2-275 without prejudice. If plaintiff files a new action against defendant Nos. 2-275, plaintiff shall indicate on the Civil Cover Sheet that the filed case is related to this matter. See Local Rule 40.3(b)(2). Plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order [8] and motion to exceed page limitation [12] are denied without prejudice. Plaintiff's motions for leave to temporarily seal documents [5, 11] are granted. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motions for leave to temporarily seal documents [5, 11], plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order, asset restraining order, expedited discovery order, and service of process by email 8, and plaintiff's motion to exceed page limitation 12 are entered and continued. Upon review of the complaint and the TRO submissions, the Court sua sponte raises the proprietary of joinder of 275 defendants in this case. See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). By 4/7/2025, plaintiff shall file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder in light of the principles described in Estee Lauder. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint with a single defendant or a smaller subset of defendants along with its memorandum explaining specifically why each defendant is properly joined to all of the others. Estee Lauder, 334 F.R.D. at 189. Telephone status hearing set for 4/3/2025 is stricken. Mailed notice
