ORDER: An initial status report is due on or before October 23, 2024. Counsel and parties are directed to familiarize themselves with the pretrial procedures in Judge Gottschall's case management packet, which is available from the court's website at http://www.ilnd.uscourts.gov. Please pay particular attention to the requirement to exchange initial disclosures within 14 days of the parties' initial discovery planning conference and the court's requirement that the parties are to explore settlement opportunities and identify areas of agreement prior to the filing of the first status report. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(1)(C) and 26(f)(2). If, by the due date of the scheduled status report, defendants have not been served, plaintiff should send an email to the chambers email account, chambers_gottschall@ilnd.uscourts.gov, to reset the status date. Counsel in cases removed from another court should follow these procedures to the extent applicable. See the order and Judge Gottschall's case management packet for further details.

ATTORNEY Appearance for Plaintiff BBC Studios Distribution Ltd by Quinn Bradley Guillermo

MOTION by Plaintiff BBC Studios Distribution Ltd for discovery Expedited

DECLARATION of Justin R. Gaudio regarding motion for discovery[18]

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: By request of one of plaintiff's attorneys, the deadline to file an initial status report is extended to and including 11/22/2024. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: Plaintiff's proposed order authorizing expedited discovery, submitted Tuesday, October 22, 2024, is vastly overbroad in view of the evidence presented, especially with respect to plaintiff's demand for an accounting. In addition, plaintiff refers to "defendant" and "defendants," with no identification of the party or parties to whom it is referring, making comprehension impossible. Plaintiff may, of course, submit a revised order as long as the relief requested is justified by the evidence provided and the order itself can be more easily understood. In addition, plaintiff's proposed order provides no opportunity for the online marketplace parties to object, itself a problematic request that has not been justified. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: By request of one of plaintiff's attorneys, the deadline to file an initial status report is extended to and including 12/23/2024. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: Plaintiff's motion 3 to seal the original complaint and certain accompanying documents is granted. Plaintiff's motion 18 for leave to conduct limited expedited discovery is granted. Enter order. The joint initial status report remains due by and including 12/23/2024. Mailed notice

ORDER Signed by the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall on 12/4/2024. Mailed notice

NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by BBC Studios Distribution Ltd as to Defendant Anqing Navigation Printing Co., Ltd

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: Pursuant to plaintiff's notice 25 of voluntary dismissal, this case is dismissed without prejudice. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice

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 questions regarding this process, this LINK will provide additional information. Signed by the Honorable Virginia M. Kendall on 12/27/2024: Mailed notice.
