May 28, 2025

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr: By 6/4/25, the plaintiff is required to file (1) a listing of all prior online trademark, copyright, or patent infringement cases (also known as "Schedule A" cases) filed in any court in the United States in which it was a plaintiff, and (2) a listing of any of the defendants included in the Schedule A in this case that the plaintiff has previously named as a defendant in any prior complaint or Schedule A case.

SUPPLEMENT to Supplemental Information to Plaintiff's TRO Motion 16

20

June 2, 2025

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:The plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal 14 is granted. Schedule A to the complaint 2 and exhibit 2 to the declaration of Elizabeth Shnayder 18, provisionally under seal pending order, are permitted to remain under seal. The plaintiff's motion for leave to file excess pages 15 is granted. The plaintiff's motion for entry of a TRO 16 is taken under advisement. By 6/6/25, the plaintiff is required to supplement its TRO motion with an index that (1) matches each defendant to the screenshots supplied in support of the motion, (2) lists the dates those screenshots were taken, and (3) identifies, on a defendant-by-defendant basis, the copyright or copyrights each defendant has allegedly infringed. On review of exhibit 2 to the declaration of Elizabeth Shnayder, the screenshots do not appear to show a single trademark allegedly infringed by each defendant listed in Schedule A. This raises a question as to the propriety of joinder. Also by 6/6/25, then, the plaintiff is directed to supplement its TRO motion with a brief explaining why joinder is proper notwithstanding the lack of a single copyright common to all defendants. (In other words, the brief should explain why joinder of claims of infringement of different copyrights is appropriate in this case.) If the brief contains new screenshots, those screenshots must be included in the index (and the defendant must certify that the screenshots were not used in any prior proceeding). Alternatively, the plaintiff may amend its complaint to include only those defendants alleged to have infringed the same copyright and file a renewed motion for entry of a TRO. Should the plaintiff elect this option, its renewed motion must include an index, but it need not include a brief regarding joinder. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:The plaintiff's motion for entry of a preliminary injunction 31 is taken under advisement. Any objection or response is due before 6/18/25. Upon review of the declaration of service, the Court directs the plaintiff, by 6/16/25, to publish the preliminary injunction motion to its website along with prominent text advising defendants that (1) a motion for entry of a preliminary injunction has been filed, and (2) any responses or objections to that motion must be filed before 6/18/25.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:On the grounds set forth in the motion, plaintiff's motion for entry of a preliminary injunction 31 is granted. Enter preliminary injunction order. The preliminary injunction directs, among other things, that Schedule A be unsealed. Plaintiff is ordered to enter in CM/ECF no later than 6/21/2025 each defendant named in the original Schedule A as a party in this case (where a defendant has been dismissed, the CM/ECF entry should reflect that status). Failure to timely comply with this requirement may result in vacating the preliminary injunction.

July 1, 2025

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John J. Tharp, Jr:The Court has reviewed the motion to dismiss or sever for misjoinder filed by shenzhenshiqiandupianmao 38. While shenzhenshiqiandupianmao was initially a defendant in this case 2, all claims against the defendant were dismissed when the plaintiff filed an amended Schedule A 21. Even assuming the motion was properly filed, but see, e.g., RROS v. City of Indianapolis, No. 24-cv-00926, 2024 WL 3161859, at *2 (S.D. Ind. June 25, 2024) (corporate entities may not appear pro se in federal court), it is therefore denied as moot. The Clerk is directed to mark the duplicate copy of the motion 41, which appears to have been filed in error, as resolved. Mailed notice
