MINUTE entry before the Honorable Nancy L. Maldonado: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal 3 is granted. Plaintiff's motion for expedited discovery 13 is granted to allow Plaintiff to identify Defendant and learn Defendant's contact information, including all associated e-mail addresses. Plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process 14 is granted because electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it effectively communicates the pendency of this action to Defendant. See, e.g., Oakley, Inc. v. Partnerships & Unincorporated Associations Identified in Schedule "A", No. 20-CV-05049, 2021 WL 2894166, at *5 (N.D. Ill. July 9, 2021) (finding electronic service proper in similar circumstances). |
