EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ORDER: GENERAL ORDER 24-0032: IT APPEARING THAT, the civil cases on the attached list have been selected for reassignment to form the initial calendar of the Honorable April M. Perry; therefore IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the attached list of 290 cases be reassigned to the Honorable April M. Perry; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all parties affected by this Order must review the Honorable April M. Perry's webpage on the Court's website for the purpose of reviewing instructions regarding scheduling and case management procedures; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that any civil case that has been reassigned pursuant to this Order will not be randomly reassigned to create the initial calendar of a new district judge for twelve months from the date of this Order; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is directed to add the Honorable April M. Perry to the Court's civil case assignment system during the next business day, so that she shall receive a full share of such cases; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is directed to add the Honorable April M. Perry to the Court's criminal case assignment system ninety (90) days so that Judge Perry shall thereafter receive a full share of such cases. Case reassigned to the Honorable April M. Perry for all further proceedings. Honorable Andrea R. Wood no longer assigned to the case. Signed by Honorable Virginia M. Kendall on 11/26/2024.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable April M. Perry: Plaintiff's motion to file under seal 11 and motion to file excess pages 12 are granted. Plaintiff's motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order 13 is denied without prejudice. In order to be entitled to equitable relief like a TRO, the Plaintiff must show (among other things) that there is ongoing or impending harm. Swanigan v. City of Chicago, 881 F.3d 577, 583 n. 2 (7th Cir. 2018). "Past injury alone is insufficient." Simic v. City of Chicago, 851 F.3d 734, 738 (7th Cir. 2017). The Plaintiff's exhibits in support of its argument of ongoing harm in this case date back to March, May, and June 2024. Although the length of time that the motion has been pending is no fault of Plaintiff, given that it is now December, there is no current evidence in the record of ongoing harm. Should Plaintiff re-file for a TRO, it is encouraged to submit live weblinks along with recent screenshots of the alleged infringement with notations (using either cover pages of a table of contents) within the exhibit noting the defendant to which each screenshot applies so the Court can evaluate both personal jurisdiction and the likelihood of irreparable injury. Mailed notice. (jcc,)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable April M. Perry: Plaintiff's Motion for Electronic Service of Process 18 is granted. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it is an effective way to communicate with an online marketplace defendant. The Court strikes the motion hearing set for 1/14/2025. Enter order. Mailed notice. (jcc,)

ORDER for Leave for Service of Process by E-Mail and/or Electronic Publication. Signed by the Honorable April M. Perry on 1/8/2025. Mailed notice. (jcc,)
