| 2025-09-03 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B.

In addition, plaintiff's proposed temporary restraining order does not define the phrases "infringing product" or identify the patent in suit with specificity, so it does not comply with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(d)(1)'s requirement that every order awarding injunctive relief must "state its terms specifically; and describe in reasonable detailand not by referring to the complaint or other document-the act or acts restrained or required."

The Clerk is instructed to maintain the seal on all presently sealed documents until further order of court.

For this reason alone, the motion 23 is denied without prejudice. In addition, plaintiff does not provide an adequate basis in the record for conducting a design patent infringement analysis. See Mem. Supp. Mot. for TRO 5-6, Dkt. No. 23 ; Standing Order in "Schedule A" Cases ¶ 3, Dkt. No. 9.

Gottschall: On June 3, 2025, plaintiff filed a memorandum of law 16 and evidence in support of joinder of the two defendants named in Schedule A 12 to the amended complaint 11. Plaintiff points out that two numbers on the packaging of defendants' accused products are identical. See Mem. 6. Different language surrounding these numbers, however, and other numbers beneath the respective bar codes on the accused products' packaging differ. See id. In addition, the significance of the identical numbers has not been adequately explained on this record. For example, identical numbers may, or may not, indicate that the products came from a common manufacturer, which is generally an insufficient reason to join two sellers as defendants.
