Apr 19, 2025 Corporate Statement STATEMENT by jinjiangshizimaozhenliuqianbingxiefushangdian (Liu, Lance) (Entered: 04/19/2025)-
Apr 14, 2025MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The motion to dismiss 16 is denied. Personal jurisdiction may be either general or specific. See Daimler AG v. Bauman, 571 U.S. 117, 12628 (2014), and Plaintiff has established a prima facie case of specific personal jurisdiction over Defendant jinjiangshizimaozhenliuqianbingxiefushangdian. Defendant argues that under FRCP 4(k)(2), the case should be dismissed in favor of jurisdiction in the state of New Jersey. Rule 4k(2) permits a "district court to exercise personal jurisdiction over a foreign defendant whose contacts with the United States, but not with the forum state, satisfy due process." Synthes (U.S.A.) v. G.M. Dos Reis Jr. Ind. Com de Equip. Medico, 563 F.3d 1285, 1296 (Fed. Cir. 2009). But the Court agrees with Plaintiff that Rule 4(k)(2) does not apply here because Plaintiff's filing has established at least a prima facie showing of specific personal jurisdiction in Illinois. Specifically, the materials included in Plaintiff's complaint include screen shots of a purchase order dated January 29, 2025 using an order number ending in 1826, which involved an order for sneakers from Defendant, that listed a Chicago, Illinois address for shipping. [Dkt. 1-2 at 2.] Regardless of whether the order actually shipped, a defendant cannot avoid this Court's jurisdiction by cancelling an order after it was placed. RABUS GmbH v. Individuals Identified on Schedule A, 2022 WL 7501046 (N.D. Ill. 2022); Pit Viper, LLC v. The P'Ships, et al., Case No. 23-cv-14761. Here, the order was placed and Defendant assigned it an order number, which is sufficient to make a prima facia showing of purposeful availment at this stage. Defendant was ready, willing, and able to ship products to an Illinois address. NBA Properties, Inc. v. HANWJH, 46 F.4th 614, 624 (7th Cir. 2022) (purposeful direction aimed at Illinois where the defendant established an online storefront, indicated a willingness to sell to Illinois, and fulfilled an order by "intentionally shipping an infringing product to the customer's designated Illinois address.") The remaining requirements for personal jurisdiction are also satisfied because the contact at issue relates to this suit and Defendant has taken steps to make its products, including those at issue in this case, available to Illinois customers. As such, it does not offend traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice for Defendant to defend against the claims in this forum. Defendant's reply raises several new arguments for the first time concerning patent validity and infringement, but the Court declines to address those questions now since Plaintiff has not had the opportunity to respond. Finally, considering Defendant's appearance in the case, the Clerk is directed to unseal any previously sealed docket entries. Defendant's answer is due by April 24, 2025. By April 28, 2025, the parties are to jointly propose a fact discovery schedule. The motion for wrongful injunction 17 is denied as previously explained [see docket entry 19 ]. Mailed notice.

Apr 2, 2025MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: Defendant's motion for "wrongful injunction" damages states "This Court has not entered a TRO against Defendant in this case." That is not correct. The Court granted and issued a sealed temporary restraining order on March 17, 2025. Plaintiff is to promptly provide defense counsel with a copy of the temporary restraining order. This would appear to moot the motion, but the parties can address any outstanding issues regarding the "wrongful injunction" in their forthcoming briefs. Mailed notice.

Jenkins: Plaintiff should review the Court's standing order on "Schedule A" Cases, available at https://www.ilnd.uscourts.gov/judge-info.aspx?IuUaWzNcEoPr4PHl9tvcGaMUezk8AnJ1 under the "Case Procedures" tab. As explained there, Plaintiff must complete and file the template linked on that page before the Court will consider granting any motion for preliminary injunctive relief. The submission must also provide a listing of all prior Schedule A cases filed in any court in the United States in which Plaintiff was a plaintiff, and a listing of any of the defendants included in the Schedule A in this case that Plaintiff has previously named as a defendant in any prior complaint or Schedule A case. Finally, by filing the template, Plaintiff certifies that Plaintiff has not used any of the screenshot evidence supplied in support of a motion for a TRO in this case in any prior proceeding. If the template is not completed by March 20, 2025, the Court may dismiss this matter for failure to prosecute. Mailed notice. (jlj, ) (Entered: 03/14/2025)MINUTE
