MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Plaintiff's motion seeking expedited discovery (Dkt. 13) is denied without prejudice. Plaintiff's request for alternative service (Dkt. 13) is granted. Separately, Plaintiff submitted two documents under seal but did not file a motion for leave to file under seal. Accordingly, the documents presently under seal (Dkt. 2, 13) will be unsealed. Execution of the unsealing of those entries will, however, be stayed until 8/18/2025 to permit Plaintiff to assess how he wishes to proceed; in other words, the documents provisionally filed under seal may remain under seal for the time being. An in-person status hearing is set for 8/26/2025 at 2:00 p.m.; lead counsel must appear in person. In advance of the hearing, counsel should review the Court's opinion in Eicher Motors Limited v. The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A Hereto, F. Supp. 3d, 2025 WL 2299593 (N.D. Ill. Aug. 8, 2025). The 8/26 hearing will be stricken if Plaintiff elects to dismiss this action voluntarily. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: On the Court's initiative, all pending motions are held in abeyance, and the case is stayed pending further order. This stay, which the Court is entering in other so-called "Schedule A" cases on its docket where requests for temporary restraining orders remain pending, is intended to permit the Court the opportunity to reassess its previous approach in Schedule A litigation involving Lanham Act, Copyright Act, and Patent Act claims typically brought on an ex parte basis against various online merchants. This reassessment will consider, among other things, whether: (1) ex parte proceedings are appropriate in these types of cases; (2) the routine sealing of parts or all of the docket is appropriate; (3) the routine granting of temporary restraining orders on an ex parte basis is a sound exercise of judicial discretion; (4) the routine granting of prejudgment asset restraints is a sound exercise of judicial discretion; and (5) the mass joinder of defendants is appropriate under the circumstances typically present in Schedule A cases. Plaintiff remains free, of course, to dismiss this action voluntarily if they wish to pursue their claims in another District, but no supplemental briefing on the pending motions may be filed absent advance leave of Court. Mailed notice.
