| 2024-10-01 | DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 10/1/2024. Emailed notice. |
| 2024-10-01 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: No remaining Defendant has responded to Plaintiff's motion for entry of default judgment. Accordingly, the motion 33 is granted. Based on the evidence previously submitted by Plaintiff and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, Plaintiff has established that a permanent injunction should be entered. The infringement of Plaintiff's marks irreparably harms Plaintiff and confuses the public. Because this infringement was willful and considering the value of Plaintiff's brand as well as the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the Court concludes that $10,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages against each remaining defendant. Enter Final Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Emailed notice. |

| 2024-09-05 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment 33 against the remaining defendants identified in Amended Schedule A [19-3]. All remaining defendants have failed either to plead or to otherwise appear to defend against this action. Accordingly, default against all defendants on Amended Schedule A is entered under Rule 55(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Any objections to the motion for entry of default judgment by the defaulted Defendants must be filed on or 9/19/24. If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining affected Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. No appearance is necessary on 9/11/24. Emailed notice. |

| 2024-08-08 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Preliminary injunctive relief has been entered against the remaining defendants who have not appeared in this case 31. Summons were executed on 7/25/24 and Defendants' responses to the complaint are due by 8/15/24 24. By 9/12/24, Plaintiff is ordered to file any motions for entry of default pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(a). If there are any remaining defendants against whom default and default judgment are not being sought, Plaintiff is ordered to file by the same date a status report identifying each defendant against whom this case is proceeding and state whether the parties anticipate a settlement or further litigation. Emailed notice. |
| 2024-08-08 | PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 8/8/2024. Emailed notice. |
| 2024-08-08 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Telephonic motion hearing held. Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction 26, which the Court now considers unopposed because no Defendant filed a notice of objection by the 8/7/24 deadline or appeared at the hearing. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk that Defendants will transfer relevant assets beyond the Court's reach. For these reasons, as well as the reasons provided in the whole of Plaintiff's filings and as stated by the Court on the record and in connection with entry of the TRO 21 22, the Court is persuaded that Plaintiff has satisfied the requirements for a preliminary injunction. In addition, the Court finds that the balance of harms favors Plaintiff and that a preliminary injunction serves the public interest by, among other things, protecting consumers from the marketing of counterfeit goods.

| 2024-07-26 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction 26 is taken under advisement. A telephonic motion hearing is set for 8/8/24 at 9:45AM. Attorneys/parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 877-336-1828, Access Code: 4082461. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting court proceedings.

For the reasons stated in the Court's initial order entering the TRO and the order extending the TRO, the TRO is extended to and including the date 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 ex |

| 2024-06-11 | [封存] SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 6/11/2024. Emailed copy to plaintiff's counsel. |
| 2024-06-11 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: The Court previously entered an order 18 finding that Plaintiff had failed to meet its burden of establishing that permissive joinder of 181 defendants in this case was proper under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). In response, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint 19 and an amended Schedule A [19-3], which remedy the misjoinder. While the Court granted Plaintiff leave to file the amended Schedule A under seal 18, Plaintiff also filed the amended complaint 19 and the exhibits to the complaint [19-1] [19-2] under seal. Plaintiff has not established any basis for sealing these documents. See Union Oil Co. of Cal. v. Leavell, 220 F.3d 562, 567-68 (7th Cir. 2000). Accordingly, the Clerk's Office is directed, forthwith, to unseal the following filings: 19, [19-1], and [19-2]. The amended Schedule A [19-3] and Plaintiff's Supplemental Response to Motion for Temporary Restraining Order 20 shall remain under seal pending further order of the Court. P |

| 2024-06-06 | ORDER: For the reasons stated in this Order, the Court finds that joinder of these defendants is improper under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). Plaintiff is granted leave to file an amended complaint consistent with this ruling along with an amended Schedule A (which may be filed under seal) by 6/20/24. Plaintiff's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order 10 remains under advisement. However, Plaintiff must also file a supplement to the TRO that specifically identifies the relevant pages where evidence pertaining to each amended Schedule A defendant can be found in the prior voluminous submissions or simply reattach the relevant pages for ease of court review. Otherwise, this Court will exercise its discretion to sever and/or dismiss parties without prejudice to cure the misjoinder. See UWM Student Ass'n v. Lovell, 888 F.3d 854, 864 (7th Cir. 2018). Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 6/6/2024. Mailed notice. |
| 2024-03-15 | SEALED DOCUMENT by Plaintiff Viking Arm AS Supplemental Memo in Support of Joinder |
| 2024-03-01 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff names 181 defendants in this single case and seeks ex parte TRO relief against each of them 10. However, after reviewing the unsealed complaint 1 and previously sealed complaint 2, the Court questions whether plaintiff has established sufficient grounds for joinder of all defendants under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). See Estee Lauder Cosmetics, Ltd. v. P'ships and Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule "A," 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020); Art Ask Agency v. Individuals, Corps. Ltd. Liab. Cos., P'ships and Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule "A," 21-cv-06197, 2021 WL 5493226 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 23, 2021); Bose Corp. v. P'ships and Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule "A," 334 F.R.D. 511 (N.D. Ill. 2020). By 3/15/24, Plaintiff is ordered to file a supplemental memorandum that refers to specific facts alleged in its filings and provides citations to specific screenshots associated with each Schedule A defendant |
| 2024-03-01 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's Ex Parte Motion for Leave to Temporarily Seal Documents and Temporarily Proceed Pseudonymously 7 and Plaintiff's Ex Parte Motion for Leave to Temporarily Seal Documents 13 are granted in part and denied in part. Plaintiff's submissions establish that, were Defendants to learn of these proceedings before the execution of a temporary restraining order, there is a significant risk that Defendants could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Conversely, there are no exceptional circumstances that would justify allowing Plaintiff to conceal its own identity: Plaintiff has filed an ex parte TRO motion, and the identity of the defendant entities will be placed under seal during the pendency of the ex parte proceedings. Given these protections for Plaintiff's legitimate interests, the countervailing strong public interest in knowing who is seeking recourse in the federal co |
