Jun 30, 2025NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL by Potato Ventures LLC regarding Defendants 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 (Poplin, Allen) (Entered: 06/30/2025)NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL
Jun 20, 2025 ORDER denying plaintiff's Motion to Seal (Doc. 22 ). On June 20, 2025, the court issued a Temporary Restraining Order (Doc. 21) without notice, enjoining defendants from certain conduct involving products that allegedly infringe plaintiff's patent. Shortly thereafter, plaintiff asked the court to seal its Temporary Restraining Order, concluding it's "necessary to prevent Defendants from learning of this Order prior to the implementation of the temporary restraining order." Doc. 22 at 1. The Temporary Restraining Order became effective when it issued on June 20, 2025. See Doc. 21 at 2. And plaintiff asks the court to prevent defendants' access to a Temporary Restraining Order that binds them. That request just won't tote. And it certainly can't conclude this request overcomes the presumption of public access to court documents and decisions. The court thus denies the motion (Doc. 22). Signed by District Judge Daniel D. Crabtree on 06/20/2025. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no.pdf document associated with this entry.) (mig) (Entered: 06/20/2025)ORDER
