| Filing 20 TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang. For the reasons stated in the Order, the motion for TRO is granted. This is the redacted public version. The Court notes that the declaration filed by Plaintiff was executed by Thomas Schlegel, an outside attorney for Plaintiff. It is unusual for an evidentiary declaration to be filed by an attorney, especially an outside attorney, because it puts the attorney-client privilege and work-product doctrines at risk. Plaintiff might wish to consider a different affiant in the future. Also, future proposed orders must incorporate a listing of the trademarks themselves into the order, including images of logos if applicable. Rule 65 generally requires that recipients know precisely what is enjoined without having to look at any separate document (such as Exhibit 1 to Schlegel's declaration).Emailed notice(slb, ) |
