October 11, 2022 Filing 36 SEALED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. Signed by the Honorable Manish S. Shah on 10/11/2022. Notices mailed. (psm, )
October 11, 2022 Filing 35 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Plaintiffs' ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order, asset restraint, expedited discovery, and electronic service of process, motion for excess pages, and motion to seal #6 #9 #30 are granted. The initial motion for a TRO #10 is denied as moot as a result of the amended complaint and renewed TRO motion. The plaintiffs' written submissions establish that if defendants were informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, assets would likely be redirected, defeating plaintiffs' interests in identifying defendants, stopping the infringement, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the submitted evidence establishes a likelihood of success on the merits as to the defendants listed in the Schedule A, the harm to plaintiffs is irreparable, and an injunction is in the public interest because infringement interferes with the plaintiffs' ability to control their intellectual property and causes consumer confusion. Those rights cannot be fully compensated by money damages. There is no countervailing harm to defendants from an order directing them to stop infringement. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it is an effective, perhaps the most effective, way to communicate with defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and implement the asset freeze. If any defendant were to appear and object, the court will take a fresh look at the asset freeze, joinder, and personal jurisdiction. A $10,000 bond is sufficient to secure the injunction, and must be posted within one week. Enter Sealed TRO. Notices mailed. (psm, )
