The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported. This minute order is being issued to all counsel of record to remind counsel of their obligation to provide updated information as to additional affiliates if such updating is necessary.

19 2026-01-12 MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff initially filed a complaint seeking to sue 71 separate defendants in this single trademark and copyright infringement suit, see 1, 2. Once the case was reassigned to this Court, however, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which names just one Defendant, and thus avoids any joinder issues. See 15. But before Plaintiff may proceed, it must file a supplemental report confirming whether it has previously named any of the 71 defendants identified in this case in a prior case asserting infringement of the same intellectual property. See Julie Stiebritz v. The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, No. 1:25-cv-03459, at 19 (N.D. Ill. Apr. 9, 2025) (dismissing the case because plaintiff previously named defendants in a prior case and dismissed them to avoid an unfavorable joinder ruling, which constitutes forum shopping). Plaintiff shall file the report by 1/20/26. Additionally, based upon Plaintiff's notice of withdrawal 16, the Clerk shall terminate Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal 4 as a pending motion. Mailed notice.

The Partnerships, No. 25-cv-13829, this case is dismissed with prejudice. All set dates and deadlines are stricken. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice.
