| 2023-11-15 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:The plaintiff's renewed motion for TRO 17 is taken under advisement. The renewed exhibit 2 to the Liao Declaration contains screenshots of defendant online stores where the product image is of a different design than the plaintiff's design patent. For those defendants, the plaintiff directs the Court to "see customer review for actual product image." E.g., Doe 2, Exhibit 2-1 to Liao Decl., ECF No. 18-2, page 4 of 31. The screenshot shows an unverified image depicting a product that appears to resemble the plaintiff's patented design claim. The Court is unaware of any instance where a plaintiff has been granted injunctive relief, much less on an ex parte basis, based on unverified customer review images. The plaintiff is ordered to submit a supplemental brief addressing the propriety of enjoining a defendant design-patent based on product images submitted by customers rather than the product image on the storefront (or the actual produ |

| 2023-11-13 | MOTION by Plaintiff Gulan Liao to seal |
| 2023-11-01 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:The motion for TRO 11 is denied without prejudice. The plaintiff has failed to show plausible infringements of its copyright as to any of the defendants, as none of the allegedly infringing screenshots in Exhibit 3 [7-4] appear to use the copyrighted image in their commercial representations. Moreover, the plaintiff has asserted dubious infringement claims for the design patent, which appear to depict a different product than the one represented in the asserted copyrighted image, against multiple defendants. For instance, and without revealing the sealed information, Doe 14 (page 29 of Dkt. [7-4]) is a flatter sphere/oblate spheroid whereas the design patent claims a regular sphere. Does 17, page 35, and 18, page 37, and Does 83-84, page 319-21, use entirely different designs, including differently shaped outer structural frames (some are different styles of lattices than the claim of the design patent) or rings of lights that may als |
