| 2025-11-04 | DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 11/4/2025. Mailed notice (gel,) |
| 2025-11-04 | 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 45 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 $15,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages against each remaining defendant. Enter Final Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 2025-10-24 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's motion for default and default judgment 45 is granted in part as to the request for entry of default. Plaintiff has shown that Defendant Chimay Market was served on 10/1/25 and failed to plead or otherwise defend this action by 10/22/25 42. Accordingly, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(a), default is entered against Defendant Chimay Market. Plaintiff's motion is entered and continued as to the request for entry of a default judgment. Any objections to the motion for entry of default judgment are due by 10/31/25. If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff must serve a copy of this order on all defaulted Defendants within one business day of entry and promptly file proof of such service. The motion hearing set for 10/29/25 48 is stricken. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 2025-09-26 | ORDER AUTHORIZING ELECTRONIC SERVICE OF PROCESS Signed by the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt on 9/26/2025. Mailed notice (gel,) |
| 2025-09-26 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's renewed motion for electronic service 36 is granted. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it is an effective way to communicate with online marketplace defendants. Enter Order Authorizing Electronic Service of Process. Motion hearing set for 9/30/25 37 is stricken. A status report regarding next steps is due by 10/31/25, if other appropriate relief has not been sought by that date. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 2025-09-16 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: The Court has reviewed the status report 34 which indicates that Plaintiff has not yet received contact information for the Defendant from the third-party Temu platform. By 10/7/25, Plaintiff is ordered to file an updated status report on the progress of expedited discovery. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 2025-08-26 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's motion for leave to conduct expedited discovery 29 is granted. The Court grants Plaintiff's request for expedited discovery as the Court finds that expedited discovery is warranted to obtain Defendant's contact information. Enter Order Authorizing Expedited Discovery. Plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3) 28 is denied without prejudice. Plaintiff seeks authorization to effectuate service of process by email and electronic publication but has not yet shown that it has a reliable email address at which it may reach Defendant. Any renewed motion must include these details. The motion hearing set for 8/28/25 30 is stricken. If no other relief has been sought, Plaintiff is ordered to file a status report by 9/16/25 updating the Court on the progress of expedited discovery and proposed next steps in the case. Finally, and as previously ordered 27, the Clerk of Court is directed, |

| 2025-08-25 | MOTION by Plaintiff Bigfoot 4X4, Inc. to expedite Plaintiff's Motion for Expedited Discovery |
| 2025-08-25 | MOTION by Plaintiff Bigfoot 4X4, Inc. Plaintiff's Motion for Electronic Service of Process Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3) |
| 2025-08-20 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: The Court has reviewed Plaintiff's status report 26 indicating its intent to file a motion requesting expedited discovery and for electronic service. This case was filed on 6/27/25 with several documents temporarily sealed. But at this point, Plaintiff has not presented exigent circumstances that would justify continued sealing of the defendant or documents pertaining to alleged infringing activity. "Secrecy makes little sense if the goal of the litigation is to protect rightholders' IP interests by obtaining an injunction against defendants' sales of infringing or counterfeit goods." See Eicher Motors Ltd. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 25 C 2937, 2025 WL 2299593 at *7 (N.D. Ill. Aug. 8, 2025)(Kness, J.). More importantly, this presumption of sealing runs counter to the well-established authority of this Circuit holding that "[m]any a litigant would prefer that the subject matter of a case |

| 2025-07-30 | Redacted, Unsealed Amended Complaint AMENDED complaint by Bigfoot 4X4, Inc. against The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A Hereto |
| 2025-07-28 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Plaintiff's motions for leave to file under seal 8 22 are granted. Schedule A 9, Amended Complaint 14, Amended Schedule A 14, Exhibit 2 to the Trent Declaration 17, and Exhibit A to the joinder memorandum 19 shall remain sealed until further court order. However, the Court's 7/13/25 minute order 13 ordered Plaintiff to file only its Amended Schedule A under seal, not an amended complaint and amended Schedule A. Because Plaintiffs' sealed Amended Schedule A is attached to the sealed Amended Complaint 14, Plaintiff is ordered to file a redacted, unsealed, standalone version of the Amended Complaint by 7/30/25. The motion hearing scheduled for 7/31/25 23 is hereby stricken. If no other relief has been sought, Plaintiff is ordered to file a status report by 8/18/25 updating the Court on proposed next steps in the case. Mailed notice (gel,) |

| 2025-07-25 | MOTION by Plaintiff Bigfoot 4X4, Inc. to seal document Plaintiff's Renewed Motion for Leave to File Under Seal |
| 2025-07-18 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: The Court previously entered an order 13 questioning whether Plaintiff had met its burden of establishing that permissive joinder of 90 Defendants in this case was proper under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2). Plaintiff was granted leave to file either a supplemental memorandum, or an amended Schedule A and amended complaint consistent with that ruling. In response, Plaintiff filed 14 a sealed amended complaint with a sealed Schedule A as an exhibit listing 8 Defendants, 15 an exhibit to the amended complaint listing trademark information, 16 the declaration of Ann C. Trent which discusses how Plaintiff is harmed by trademark infringement, 17 a sealed exhibit to the declaration of Ann C. Trent with screenshots of the Temu website showing the infringing products for sale, 18 a memorandum in support of joinder, and 19 an exhibit to that memorandum identifying each Defendants' infringing product in the exhibit to the declaration of Ann C. Trent |

| 2025-07-03 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: This case has been assigned to the calendar of Judge LaShonda A. Hunt. Plaintiff names 90 Defendants in this single case 9. However, after reviewing the complaint 1 and other filings, the Court questions whether Plaintiff has established sufficient grounds for joinder of all Defendants. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2); Viking Arm AS v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 24 C 1566, 2024 WL 2953105 (N.D. Ill. June 6, 2024). In addition, because Plaintiff filed a form complaint with generic allegations about "Defendant Internet Stores" allegedly violating federal trademark laws without any details whatsoever about the defendants identified in Schedule A, the Court doubts that the complaint satisfies the requirements of with Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 8 and 10. Accordingly, by 7/17/25, Plaintiff must either (a) file an amended complaint and an amended Schedule A under seal with a subset of Defendan |
