Date Filed Document Text
July 17, 2020 Filing 22 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Rebecca R. Pallmeyer: Telephone motion hearing held. As Plaintiff's "prior art" showing rests on a product not mentioned in the original motion and complaint, and as Plaintiff's product is now back in the Amazon marketplace (albeit at a lower profile), the court concludes the record does not support a showing of irreparable injury or a clear likelihood of success on the merits. Plaintiff's motion for TRO and preliminary injunction #8 is therefore denied without prejudice. Parties are encouraged to continue discussion of settlement. Further telephone status conference is set for 7/31/2020 at 9:15 a.m. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing. The call-in number is 877-336-1839 and the access code is 6708061. Counsel of record will receive an email 15 minutes prior to the start of the telephonic hearing with instructions to join the call. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings. Violation of these prohibitions may result in sanctions, including removal of court issued media credentials, restricted entry to future hearings, denial of entry to future hearings, or any other sanctions deemed necessary by the Court.
