| Filing 25 AMENDED complaint by Sega Corporation against The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Amended Schedule A Hereto (Attachments: #1 Exhibit 1)(Hierl, Michael) |
| Filing 24 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Georgia N Alexakis: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal #7 and motion to exceed page limitation #10 is granted. Plaintiff's motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order #11 is taken under advisement. Upon review of the complaint, the Court sua sponte raises the propriety of joining 170 defendants #8 in a single action involving 14 trademark registrations #22 . See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). By 11/15/24, plaintiff must file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder in light of the principles described in Estee Lauder. Plaintiff may also want to review the Court's order in Bug Art Limited v. The Partnerships, 24 CV 7777, Dkt. 28, where the Court expressed its joinder-related concerns in cases of this size and type and also discussed its expectation that plaintiffs pinpoint those portions of voluminous records (e.g., Dkt. 13-21) that support a plaintiff's joinder-related assertions. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint by 11/15/24 with a smaller subset of defendants along with a memorandum explaining why each defendant is properly joined to all of the others. Estee Lauder, 334 F.R.D. at 189. No appearance is required on 10/21/24. (ca, ) |
