(Declaration of Sofia Quezada Hastings)(Quezada Hastings, Sofia)

STATUS Report by ConcernedApe LLC (Quezada Hastings, Sofia)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process 17 is entered and continued. Upon review of the complaint, the Court sua sponte raises the issue of whether the Court has specific personal jurisdiction over the defendant. Evidence "that it was possible to order the defendants' products and have them shipped to Illinois," including screenshots of the defendant's "website showing the checkout page with the infringing product, a Chicago shipping address, and the estimated total," but without evidence of a completed purchase is insufficient. Liu v. Monthly, 170 F.4th 1090, 1093 (7th Cir. 2026). By 5/4/2026, plaintiff shall file supplemental evidence showing a sale within the jurisdiction or a status report stating its basis to continue this case without such sale. Mailed notice
