NOTICE by Popilush LLC of Plaintiff's Unopposed Motion to Reassign and Consolidate Related Cases Under Local Rule 40.4 and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42

SEALED EXHIBIT by Plaintiff Popilush LLC (Sealed Exhibits A-E) regarding notice of filing[41]

MINUTE entry before the Executive Committee: Case reassigned to the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin for all further proceedings pursuant to Local Rule 40.4. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Judge Durkin was a partner at Mayer Brown until January 2013. He is not acquainted with the defense attorneys of record. This order is entered as a matter of disclosure and the court does not believe it is a basis for recusal. But if either party believes such a motion is appropriate the court will consider it. 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.

SEALED DOCUMENT by Plaintiff Popilush LLC (Declaration of Nicholas J. Ronaldson in Support of Plaintiff's Ex Parte Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, Temporary Injunction, Temporary Asset Restraint, and Expedited Discovery)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Plaintiff's following motions are granted: [23], [25], [31]. Plaintiff's motions for a temporary restraining order [17], [32] are granted in part and denied in part. The requests for a temporary restraining order and asset restraint are granted in part. In footnote 1 of its declaration, Plaintiff indicates that it has been unable to effectuate a purchase from a number of Defendants and that other Defendants no longer ship to Chicago. Consistent with the Court's standing order on what establishes personal jurisdiction for purposes of a TRO or asset freeze, because these Defendants have not sold any allegedly infringing product to a customer in Illinois, the TRO and asset restraint are denied as to those Defendants. Further, the request to reduce the bond is denied. The Court's practice is to require a $1,000 bond per defendant and Plaintiff has provided no reasons the Court should deviate from this. Plaintiff shall submit a revised proposed order consistent with this order. Mailed notice.

SEALED Temporary Restraining Order and Asset Restraint. Signed by the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin on 12/3/2025. Mailed notice.

SEALED Expedited Discovery and Electronic Service Order. Signed by the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin on 12/3/2025. Mailed notice.
