P. 55(a), the court hereby enters a finding of default against Defendant. Furthermore, the court takes under advisement Plaintiff's renewed motion for entry of default judgment under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b) 48. Defendant is ordered to show cause as to why default judgment should not be entered by 5/22/2026 or may face default judgment under Rule 55(b). Plaintiff is directed to promptly serve this order on Defendant and file a certificate of service. Plaintiff (or both parties if defendant appears) should file a joint status report by 5/27/2026.

| 2026-04-27 | CERTIFICATE of Service by John Wilson on behalf of Britto Central, Inc. |
| 2026-04-27 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has reviewed plaintiff's memorandum 45. Plaintiff has discharged its obligations under the 4/17/26 show-cause order 43. To the extent plaintiff's 3/26/26 motion 40 requests entry of default against defendant under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a), the motion is taken under advisement. Defendant Peripheral Gift Shops is ordered to show cause by 5/4/2026 as to why default should not be entered or it will face entry of default. To the extent plaintiff's motion 40 requests default judgment under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b), the motion is denied as premature without prejudice to plaintiff's ability to refile it if the court enters default. Plaintiff is directed to promptly serve this order on defendant and file a certificate of service. Mailed notice. |

| 2026-04-20 | STATUS Report by Britto Central, Inc. |
| 2026-04-17 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has received plaintiff's motion for entry of default and default judgment 40. By 5/15/2026, plaintiff is ordered to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for want of personal jurisdiction. Plaintiff has not adequately established personal jurisdiction. The Seventh Circuit has, in some cases, found the existence of specific personal jurisdiction in trademark, copyright, and patent infringement suits against online retailers, but only when the defendant has shipped the allegedly infringing products to the forum state. See, e.g., NBA Props., Inc. v. HANWJH, 46 F.4th 614, 62223 (7th Cir. 2022). Absent fulfillment and shipment of an order into the forum state, the operation of an "interactive" online storefront is insufficient to establish personal jurisdiction. See Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a d |

| 2026-02-13 | SUMMONS Returned Executed by Britto Central, Inc. as to The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Amended Schedule A Hereto on 2/13/2026, answer due 3/6/2026. |
| 2026-02-13 | SUMMONS Issued (Court Participant) as to Defendants Peripheral Gift Shops |
| 2026-02-12 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion, 32, is granted. The Clerk of Court is directed to issue a single original summons in the name of "Peripheral Gift Shops." Mailed notice. |
| 2026-02-10 | MOTION by Plaintiff Britto Central, Inc. Plaintiff's Motion to Direct the Clerk of the Court to Issue a Summons |
| 2026-02-06 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has received plaintiff's status report, 29. Plaintiff is directed to file a status report by 3/19/26 updating the court on the status of this case. Mailed notice. |
| 2026-02-05 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion 28 for electronic service of process is granted. While a preferable means of service, the court is cognizant of the fact that physical service is not always possible. In this case, Plaintiff certifies that it has attempted, but has been unable, to obtain a physical address for defendant. In such a circumstance, a less preferable form of service is permissible. Service via email is "reasonably calculated" to be received by defendant, and it is thus adequate in this case. Mullane v. Cent. Hanover Bank & Tr. Co., 339 U.S 306, 319 (1950). What's more, service via email is not barred under Fed. R. Civ. P. 4. Thus, plaintiff may serve process via email. Mailed notice. |

| 2025-12-31 | 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 |
| 2025-12-29 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion for electronic service, 25, is denied. Plaintiff is directed to first attempt means of service on the defendant identified in the Amended Complaint, [18-3], "by any internationally agreed means. that is reasonably calculated to give notice." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(1); see also Mullane v. Cent. Hanover Bank & Tr. Co., 339 U.S. 306, 317 (1950). If there is no internationally agreed means, Plaintiff shall attempt service by the means specified in Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(2). If those means fail, Plaintiff may inform the court and petition this court for permission to serve process via "other means not prohibited by international agreement." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(3). Mailed notice. |

If there is no internationally agreed means, Plaintiff shall attempt service by the means specified in Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(f)(2).

Mailed notice. |
| 2025-11-24 | RESPONSE by Plaintiff Britto Central, Inc. Memorandum in Response to Order of November 14, 2025 [Dkt. No. 31] |
| 2025-11-14 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: The court has reviewed plaintiff's Amended Complaint, 18. The court notes that plaintiff filed its original complaint, 1, over 90 days ago and there is nothing on the record indicating that the defendant listed in Amended Schedule A, [18-3], has been served or has waived service. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(1). By 12/9/2025, plaintiff is ordered to show cause why the case should not be dismissed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m). |

| 2025-08-06 | Unsealed Schedule A by Britto Central, Inc. |
| 2025-07-29 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: By 8/12/2025, plaintiff is ordered to show cause why this case should not be dismissed or severed for improper joinder. Plaintiff is advised of the following: First, "[o]n motion or on its own, the court may at any time, on just terms, add or drop a party." Fed. R. Civ. P. 21(a). Second, sua sponte review of the propriety of joinder in Schedule A cases is a regular practice of courts in this district because plaintiffs "routinely file these multi-defendant cases. using cookie-cutter complaints that allege in a conclusory manner that 'on information and belief' each infringing defendant is inter-connected with the others." Viking Arm AS v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule "A", No. 24-cv-1566, 2024 WL 2953105, at *1 (N.D. Ill. June 6, 2024).

| 2025-07-29 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal, 8, is denied. Plaintiff seeks leave to file under seal so that plaintiff may obtain a temporary restraining order freezing the defendants' assets before revealing the defendants' identities. Id. at 1-2. "The Supreme Court has made clear that courts lack the power to issue an asset freeze at the beginning of a case, unless that party is seeking equitable monetary relief." Zorro Productions, Inc. v. Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A Hereto, No. 23-cv-5761, 2023 WL 8807254, at *4 (N.D.
