| 25 | 2026-06-09 | MINUTES: MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: (1.) The Plaintiff's motion 22 to reassign 1:26-cv-06246 is denied. When defendants are improperly joined, as the original defendants were in this case, there is no reason to think that the cases are then related under Local Rule 40.4. The Defendants have no connection other than the alleged infringement of the same trademark. So the cases are not susceptible of disposition in a single proceeding. And given the need to set individualized damages (including statutory damages, Broadcast Music, Inc. v. Star Amusements, Inc., 44 F.3d 485, 488 (7th Cir. 1995) (in setting statutory damages, courts may consider willfulness, the scope and circumstances of the infringement, and deterrence) (cited by Shenzhen Huajie Tech. Co. v. Shenzhen Leyibei Tech. Co., USCA No. 25-2659, 2026 WL 1165558, at *2 (7th Cir. Apr. 29, 2026)), there is no reason why handling of both cases by the same judge would result in saving of judicial time and effort. Lastly, 1:26-cv-06246 did not include the sole remaining defendant in this case, so it was not the refiling of a previously dismissed case. The motion is denied. (2.) The Plaintiff shall file a status report by 06/19/2026, setting forth the proposed plan forward, now that the deadline to file a motion for early discovery, see R. 19, 24, has expired. Emailed notice |
| 24 | 2026-06-03 | MINUTES: MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff has filed an amended complaint, R. 20, naming one Defendant. No motion for early discovery was filed by 05/29/2026, R. 19. Plaintiff's motion to reassign case 26 C 4893 22 is under review. The tracking status hearing set for 06/05/2026 is reset to 07/10/2026 at 8:30 a.m. to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice |

| 20 | 2026-05-27 | COMPLAINT: AMENDED complaint by Revelyst Operations, LLC against The Individuals, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Amended Schedule A Hereto 1 attachment |
| 19 | 2026-05-18 | MINUTES: 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. |
