MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: This case has been assigned to Judge LaShonda A. Hunt. Upon review of the trademark infringement complaint and other filings, the Court questions whether Plaintiff has established sufficient grounds for joinder of all 17 defendants under Fed. R. Civ. P. 20. See Viking Arm AS v. P'ships & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A,No. 24 C 1566, 2024 WL 2953105 (N.D. Ill. June 6, 2024). Indeed, Plaintiff filed a form complaint with generic allegations about coordinated counterfeiting activity between 17 defendants without any details whatsoever, which arguably violates the requirements of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 8 and 10. The Court also questions whether Plaintiff has sufficiently alleged personal jurisdiction over any defendant. To adequately plead personal jurisdiction, Plaintiff must sufficiently allege that the defendants actually sold the allegedly infringing product to a customer in Illinois. See Liu v. Monthly, No. 25-2074, 2026 WL 880018, at *1 (7th Cir. Mar. 31, 2026) (citing Curry v. Revolution Lab'ys, LLC, 949 F.3d 385, 400 (7th Cir. 2020)). Plaintiff's amended complaint alleges sales in this district, but those allegations are conclusory and Plaintiff did not provide proof of actual sales in this district, so Plaintiff not sufficiently alleged that the Court has personal jurisdiction over any defendant. See id. (remanding with instructions to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction because plaintiff had not provided screenshot evidence of actual sales in Illinois). Accordingly, by 5/8/26, Plaintiff must file (1) Plaintiff must file proof of actual sales in Illinois and (2) either a memorandum explaining why joinder is proper or an amended complaint specifically naming and identifying each defendant being sued and setting forth with more than conclusory statements the alleged infringing activity. Failure to do so will result in the current complaint being dismissed without prejudice and this case being closed. Plaintiff's motion to unseal 12 (which refers to the wrong plaintiff) is granted, and Plaintiff's motion to seal 8 is terminated as moot. The Clerk's office is directed to unseal Dkt. 9.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable LaShonda A. Hunt: Upon review of Plaintiff's corrected amended complaint 16 and declaration of Plaintiff's counsel 19, the Court finds that Plaintiff has sufficiently alleged personal jurisdiction at this early stage of the case and resolved the Court's concerns regarding joinder. The Clerk's office is directed to update the caption to reflect that the only Defendant in this case is "Yiwu Juyi Import And Export Co., Ltd." In any event, Plaintiff's motion for leave to conduct expedited discovery 17 is granted in part and denied in part. The Court grants Plaintiff's request for expedited discovery as the Court finds that expedited discovery is warranted to obtain Defendant's contact information. Enter Order Authorizing Expedited Discovery. If no other relief has been sought, Plaintiff is ordered to file a status report by 5/28/26 updating the Court on the progress of expedited discovery and proposed next steps in the case.
