| 2024-05-08 | DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Martha M. Pacold on 5/8/2024. Mailed notice |
| 2024-05-08 | ORDER: No remaining defendant has responded to plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment, 29, which was filed nearly four months ago. The motion is granted. Based on the evidence submitted in support of the temporary restraining order and the motion for entry of default and default judgment, and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, plaintiff has established that the infringement was willful, that damages should be awarded in the amount of $100,000 per defendant, and that a permanent injunction should be entered. Plaintiff has shown that the infringement of plaintiff's copyrights causes plaintiff irreparable harm in the form of diminished goodwill and brand confidence, damage to plaintiff's reputation, loss of exclusivity, and loss of future sales; that monetary damages are inadequate to address these harms; and that the public interest would not be disserved by a permanent injunction. No defendant has appeared to argue otherwise, thus, the court also |

| 2024-04-16 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: By 4/25/2024, plaintiff and defendant AdoraCute by PatPat are directed to file a status report on the status of the case and how they seek to proceed with this case. |
| 2024-04-16 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has reviewed plaintiff's notice of dismissal 58, which seeks to voluntarily dismiss defendants No. 182 Home Boutique Corner and No. 198 VASYL Flagship Store. But Rule 41(a) is not the proper vehicle for dismissing some, but not all, parties to an action. Taylor v. Brown, 787 F.3d 851, 857 (7th Cir. 2015) ("Rule 41(a) should be limited to dismissal of an entire action."). The court therefore construes plaintiff's notices of voluntary dismissal as a request for leave to amend the pleadings under Rule 15(a)(2) by removing defendants from the Schedule A form, see Taylor, 787 F.3d at 857-58, and the court grants plaintiff leave to amend the pleadings. Plaintiff has already filed an amended Schedule A on the docket 59. Home Boutique Corner and VASYL Flagship store are terminated. |

But Rule 41(a) is not the proper vehicle for dismissing some, but not all, parties to an action. Taylor v. Brown, 787 F.3d 851, 857 (7th Cir. 2015) ("Rule 41(a) should be limited to dismissal of an entire action."). The court therefore construes plaintiff's notices of voluntary dismissal as a request for leave to amend the pleadings under Rule 15(a)(2) by removing defendants from the Schedule A form, see Taylor, 787 F.3d at 857-58, and the court grants plaintiff leave to amend the pleadings.

| 2024-02-28 | NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by Gerald J. Lofaro as to [Certain] Defendants |
| 2024-02-22 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff has filed notices of voluntary dismissal as to certain defendants, [48], [52], as well as a proposed amended Schedule A, [49]. However, it is not clear whether the amended Schedule A is accurate given that it redacts, among other defendants, defendant No. 60, AdoraCute by PatPat. The redactions in the amended Schedule A appear to indicate dismissed defendants. But plaintiff's most recent status report [52] and defendant No. 60's requests for extension of its answer deadline, e.g., [50], indicate that defendant No. 60 has not been dismissed. By 2/29/24, plaintiff should review the most recent notices of voluntary dismissal, [48], [52], and the proposed amended Schedule A, [49], and file (1) a consolidated notice of voluntary dismissal reflecting the defendants it seeks to dismiss and (2) a new proposed amended Schedule A accurately reflecting all the dismissals. Plaintiff's most recent filings, [48], [49], [52], are stricken |
| 2024-02-21 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Defendant AdoraCute by PatPat's motion for extension of time to file answer [50] is granted. By 3/18/24, defendant AdoraCute by PatPat should file an answer or other response to the complaint. |

| 2023-12-28 | ANNUAL REMINDER: Pursuant to Local Rule 3.2 (Notification of Affiliates), any nongovernmental party, other than an individual or sole proprietorship, must file a statement identifying all its affiliates known to the party after diligent review or, if the party has identified no affiliates, then a statement reflecting that fact must be filed. An affiliate is defined as follows: any entity or individual owning, directly or indirectly (through ownership of one or more other entities), 5% or more of a party. The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported. This minute order is being issued to all counsel of record to remind counsel of their obligation to provide updated information as to additional affiliates if such updating is necessary. If counsel has any quest |

| 2023-12-19 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has taken the motion for preliminary injunction 20 under advisement and will consider the motion 20 unopposed if no defendant appears and objects by 1/2/2024. Plaintiff shall serve defendants with this notice. For the reasons stated in the court's orders entering the TRO, the TRO is further extended to and including the date on which the court adjudicates the motion for a preliminary injunction. See H-D Mich., LLC v. Hellenic Duty Free Shops S.A., 694 F.3d 827, 843-45 (7th Cir. 2012). Because this extension exceeds the maximum duration for a TRO under FRCP 65(b), this extension "becomes in effect a preliminary injunction that is appealable, but the order remains effective."

| 2023-12-04 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: For the reasons set forth in plaintiff's motions, the supporting memoranda, and the temporary restraining order, plaintiff's motions for leave to file excess pages 13 and for leave to file under seal 12 are granted. Plaintiff's motion for a temporary restraining order, including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, electronic service of process, and expedited discovery 14 is granted. Plaintiff's filings support proceeding (for the time being) on an ex parte basis. Specifically, were defendants to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, it is likely assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the evidence submitted by plaintiff shows a substantial likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), the harm to |
