"[B]rand owners who seek relief against alleged counterfeiters may be frustrated by the stringent requirements for pseudonymous litigation. But in the absence of a change in binding Seventh Circuit caselaw, changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, or the creation of an alternative legislative remedy, the current legal framework does not permit pseudonymity without a demonstration of circumstances more exceptional than those presented" in a typical schedule A case.

To proceed, the plaintiff must show cause why exceptional circumstances exist here. Alternatively, Plaintiff may file an amended complaint that does not use a pseudonym for its identity. The required show cause submission or amended complaint must be filed by November 29, 2023. Lastly, pursuant to the District's Local Rules, both attorneys who have appeared on behalf of the plaintiff are directed to either join the general bar of the Northern District of Illinois or file a motion for leave to appear pro hac vice by 11/22/23.
