18 2026-05-12 NOTICE of Motion by Michael A. Hierl for presentment of motion to seal document 8, motion for temporary restraining order, 15, motion for leave to file excess pages 14 before Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 5/19/2026 at 08:30 AM.
19 2026-05-18 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: (1.) The Plaintiff's motion 14 for extra pages is granted. Given the goal of asset restraint, the motion 8 to file under seal is granted. (2.) On review of the complaint, Schedule A, and the TRO brief, the TRO motion 15 is denied without prejudice. First, the Court raises the propriety of joinder of the 10 Defendants, R. 9. Unless the Court is missing something, neither the complaint nor the brief in support of the TRO motion explain the basis for joinder. The Plaintiff shall review the opinion in Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182, 18789 (N.D. Ill. 2020), and file a memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder by 05/29/2026. In lieu of the memorandum, by the same deadline, the Plaintiff may file an amended complaint with (a) one defendant or (b) a subset of the defendants along with a memo explaining why joinder of those defendants is proper. (3.) No prima facie case for personal jurisdiction has been established. The contention that availability to Illinois would establish prima facie jurisdiction anywhere in the country. Having said that, for purposes of granting expedited discovery, it would be appropriate to allow the Plaintiff to obtain information on personal jurisdiction. Under Liu v. Monthly, 170 F.4th 1090, 109394(7th Cir. 2026), the Plaintiff must be able to show at least one sale of an infringing product into Illinois to establish personal jurisdiction. If the early discovery does not reveal a sale of an infringing product into Illinois, then personal jurisdiction will not be established. The Court raises this issue on its own given the ex parte, non-adversarial presentation at this stage of the case. Federal courts must carefully review filings when presented by just one side in an ex parte setting. See American Can Co. v. Mansukhani, 742 F.2d 314, 325 (7th Cir. 1984) (explaining that courts must "carefully consider" the need for TROs given the ex parte context); In re Grand Jury Proceedings of Special April 2002 Grand Jury, 347 F.3d 197, 205 (7th Cir. 2003) (explaining that the court had "conducted a careful in camera and ex parte review" of the record). The Plaintiff may file a motion for early discovery (a subset of the current TRO motion) by 05/29/2026. (4.) To track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called), a tracking status hearing is set for 06/05/2026 at 8:30 a.m. Mailed notice.
