MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff is directed to file a supplemental brief (not to exceed 10 pages) by 8/22/2025, explaining the basis for personal jurisdiction over defendant. On 7/21/2025, plaintiff moved for entry of default and default judgment against defendant. 23. "Before a court can enter a default judgment, however, it must be satisfied that it has personal jurisdiction over the defendants." Simonsen v. Bd. of Educ. of City of Chicago, No. 01 C 3081, 2002 WL 230777, at *15 (N.D. Ill. Feb. 14, 2002) (citation omitted). That is because "this Court cannot enter a default judgment against a party over whom it lacks personal jurisdiction." Pardo v. Mecum Auction, Inc., No. 12 C 08410, 2014 WL 627690, at *8 (N.D. Ill. Feb. 18, 2014); see also Deckers Outdoor Corp. v. Does 1-55, No. 11-cv-10, 2011 WL 2036454, at *2 (N.D. Ill. May 24, 2011) ("To enter a default judgment against one or more of the Defendants, the Court must have personal jurisdiction." (citing Relational, LLC v. Hodges, 627 F.3d 668, 671 (7th Cir. 2010))); Barry v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 410 F.Supp.3d 161, 171 (D.D.C. Sept. 4, 2019) ("The court must also 'satisfy itself that it has personal jurisdiction before entering judgment against an absent defendant.'" (quoting Mwani v. bin Laden, 417 F.3d 1, 6-7 (D.C. Cir. 2005))). The Seventh Circuit has, in some cases, found the existence of specific personal jurisdiction in trademark, copyright, and patent infringement suits against online retailers, but only when the defendant has shipped the allegedly infringing products to the forum state. See, e.g., NBA Props., Inc. v. HANWJH, 46 F.4th 614, 622-23 (7th Cir. 2022); Curry v. Revolution Lab'ys, LLC, 949 F.3d 385, 399 (7th Cir. 2020); Illinois v. Hemi Group, LLC, 622 F.3d 754, 758 (7th Cir. 2010). Absent fulfillment and shipment of an order into the forum state, the operation of an "interactive" online storefront is insufficient to establish personal jurisdiction. See Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a defendant up to personal jurisdiction in every spot on the planet where that interactive website is accessible."). Here, the complaint alleges that defendant has "targeted sales to Illinois residents by setting up and operating e-commerce stores that target United States consumers. offer shipping to the United States, including Illinois, accept payment in U.S. dollars and/or funds from U.S. bank accounts." 12 para. 19. However, "displaying products online that are shippable to Illinois amounts to nothing more than maintaining an interactive website that is accessible in Illinois. That alone cannot confer personal jurisdiction." Rubik's Brand, Ltd. v. P'ships and Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified in Schedule A, No. 20-cv-5338, 2021 WL 825668, at *3 (N.D. Ill. Mar. 4, 2021) ("The maintenance of an interactive website, without more, is insufficient to vest a court with personal jurisdiction."). Further, the complaint alleges that defendant, "on information and belief, ha[s] sold Counterfeit NBA Products to residents of Illinois." 12 para. 19. However, "conclusory allegations stated only upon 'information and belief,' are insufficient to establish that the court has personal jurisdiction over a defendant." Cagan v. Gadman, CV 08-3710 (SJF) (ARL), 2009 WL 10712634, at *4 (E.D.N.Y. July 6, 2009) (citation omitted).

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion for extension of time, [26], is granted. Any defendant objecting to plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment, [23], must enter an appearance and file a written objection by 8/22/2025. If no objections are filed, the court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff shall serve defendants with this notice.
