| 13 | 2026-06-05 | MOTION by Plaintiff Wumei Lin for order, Expedited Discovery |
| 14 | 2026-06-12 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: By 7/7/26, plaintiff is ordered to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for want of personal jurisdiction. Plaintiff has not adequately established personal jurisdiction. The Seventh Circuit has, in some cases, found the existence of specific personal jurisdiction in trademark, copyright, and patent infringement suits against online retailers, but only when the defendant has shipped the allegedly infringing products to the forum state. See, e.g., NBA Props., Inc. v. HANWJH, 46 F.4th 614, 62223 (7th Cir. 2022). Absent fulfillment and shipment of an order into the forum state, the operation of an "interactive" online storefront is insufficient to establish personal jurisdiction. See Advanced Tactical Ordnance Sys., LLC v. Real Action Paintball, Inc., 751 F.3d 796, 803 (7th Cir. 2014) ("Having an interactive website. should not open a defendant up to personal jurisdiction in every spot on the planet where that interactive website is accessible."). Mailed notice. |
