40 2024-04-11 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey I Cummings: The 4/12/24 tracking status hearing is stricken. Mailed notice
41 2024-04-18 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey I Cummings: No remaining defendant has responded to plaintiff's motion for entry of default judgment. Accordingly, the motion 35 is granted. Based on the evidence previously submitted by plaintiff and the admission of liability by virtue of the default, plaintiff has established that a permanent injunction should be entered. The infringement of plaintiff's marks irreparably harms plaintiff and confuses the public. This infringement was willful and statutory damages are awarded. After considering the nature of the products, the price point, the absence of any concrete evidence of lost profits or high-volume infringement by defendants (plaintiff has failed to seek an accounting of profits), the value of plaintiff's brand, and the need to deter infringement that is easily committed and difficult to stop, the Court concludes that $100,000 is an appropriate award of statutory damages. Enter Final Judgment Order. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice
