MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Upon review of Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration, pertinent case authority, and the record, the Court finds that Plaintiff has shown a likelihood of success on the merits of a trademark infringement claim against all defendants named in the motion for a temporary restraining order. That motion [25] is granted, and the order at Dkt. 24 is amended as follows. The motion for a temporary restraining order ("TRO") including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery [15] is granted. The motion for electronic service of process [20] is granted. Enter orders. Mailed notice.
MOTION by Plaintiffs Swarovski Aktiengesellschaft, Swarovski North America Limited for reconsideration regarding order on motion for temporary restraining order, order on motion for miscellaneous relief, text entry, [24]
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: The motion for a temporary restraining order ("TRO") including a temporary injunction, a temporary asset restraint, and expedited discovery [15] is granted in part and denied in part without prejudice. The motion is granted as to Defendant Nos. 3, 4, and 5 and denied as to Defendant Nos. 1, 2, 6, 10, 12, 14, and 15. Defendant Nos. 1,2,6, 10, 12, 14, and 15 sell car tissue boxes and steering wheel covers with the image of a swan. E.g., R. 19 at 3-9, 19-35. Plaintiff argues that these Defendants infringe on certain trademarks, but the identified trademark registrations do not appear to cover these types of goods. Compare id. with R. 1-1 at pp. 1821, 2830. Any renewed motion for a TRO as to these Defendants should address this issue. The motion for electronic service of process [20] is granted. Plaintiff shall provide updated proposed orders consistent with this order to the Court's Proposed Order Inbox. Mailed notice.
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: The Court requires that any motion for a temporary restraining order and/or asset freeze is accompanied by a declaration from an attorney of record that provides the following information. First, to demonstrate the immediate harm necessary to grant the drastic remedy of an ex parte temporary restraining order, the declaration must confirm that each named defendant has sold or offered to sell the allegedly infringing product(s) within the last two months and describe the evidence supporting this confirmation. Generally, evidence that a defendant has sold or offered to sell the infringing products within the last two months may include: (1) screenshots of the listings collected within the last two months; (2) screenshots older than two months with an attestation that the listings reflected in the screenshots have been checked within the last two months and were active; or (3) evidence of a purchase by a customer in Illinois within the last two months. Second, as relevant to personal jurisdiction, without which any temporary restraining order or asset freeze would be invalid, the declaration must confirm that each named defendant sold at least one allegedly infringing product to a customer in Illinois and describe the evidence supporting this confirmation. Here, "sold" means that the defendant accepted an order and payment for an allegedly infringing product to be shipped to Illinois. Third, to assure that Court that the rights of defendants who have not yet been served are being appropriately protected, the declaration must identify the case number(s) and assigned judge(s) for any pending case(s) brought by the plaintiff(s) against any of the named defendants, noting whether the intellectual property at issue was the same or different than in this case. If it is the same, the declaration should describe the disposition of the other case. The Court will address any motion for a temporary restraining order only after receipt of the described declaration, which can be filed contemporaneously with the motion. Additionally, to the extent Plaintiff also makes a motion for expedited discovery or for an order permitting electronic service of process, Plaintiff should submit a proposed order for that relief that is separate from the proposed order for the TRO and asset restraint. The proposed order for the TRO and asset restraint should name the relevant defendants directly in the order, without reference to Schedule A. Mailed notice.
