SEALED DOCUMENT by Plaintiff Celine SA Declaration of Dilpreet Aujla in Support of Plaintiffs Complaint

Motion for electronic service 13 NOTICE of Motion by Paul Joseph Kossof for presentment of motion to seal 8, motion for temporary restraining order 14, motion to seal 17 before Honorable John Robert Blakey on 6/25/2025 at 11:00 AM.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: The Court grants Plaintiff's motions to seal 8, 17. The Court also finds that Plaintiff's allegations support the joinder of Defendants in this single action. Plaintiff has alleged and established, via memorandum 12, that the sellers identified on Schedule A share "unique identifiers, such as templates with common design elements that intentionally omit any contact information or other information for identifying Defendants or other aliases they operate or use." Plaintiff has also established that the ecommerce stores operating under the Seller Aliases "include other notable common features, such as use of the same registration patterns, accepted payment methods, check-out methods, keywords, advertising tactics, similarities in price and quantities, the same incorrect grammar and misspellings, and/or the use of the same text and images." Additionally, the "Counterfeit Celine Products for sale by the Seller Aliases bear similar irregularities and indicis of being counterfeit to one another, suggesting that the Counterfeit Celine Products were manufactured by and come from a common source and that Defendants are interrelated." Notably, Plaintiff's included screenshots show that the Plaintiffs all use the same product picture, sell the same products, and utilize the same product identification numbers. For present purposes, this satisfies the "series of transactions or occurrences" requirement of section 299(a)(1), as well as Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(a)(2), and Plaintiff may proceed against the identified Defendants in this single action. 1, 9. Additionally, based upon Plaintiff's submissions, the Court grants Plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process 13. However, the Court denies Plaintiff's motion for a temporary restraining order, 14, without prejudice as the proposed temporary restraining order contains inaccurate information regarding Plaintiff's trademarks. The 6/25/25 Notice of Motion date is stricken. Mailed notice. (jcc,)

MOTION by Plaintiff Celine SA for temporary restraining order amended to address trademark information per Courts 6/23/25 order.
