| 2025-01-28 | [封存] SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER Signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 01/28/2025. Emailed notice |
| 2025-01-28 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff's motion 18 for temporary restraining order and other relief is granted. The TRO will run through 02/11/2025. An order will be entered under seal separately. Although the Court again expresses its concern about restraining assets before judgment, Grupo Mexicano de Desarrollo v. Alliance Bond Fund, 527 U.S. 308, 331 (1999), the Plaintiff does invoke a statutory remedy, namely, an accounting of profits (that is, disgorgement of profits) under 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a), which is not a mere common-law equitable claim and thus could allow for pre-judgment restraint. Indeed, trademark owners need only "prove defendant's sales only; defendant must prove all elements of costs or deduction claimed." 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a). To the extent that the restraint might be too broad, the Defendants may appear and file challenges to the scope of the TRO. The balance of factors tips in favor of Plaintiff being able to freeze the assets without advanc |

Otherwise, the Plaintiff shall file a status report on 01/27/2025.
