COMPLAINT (REDACTED) filed by XYZ Corporation; Filing fee $ 405, receipt number AILNDC-24118947.

MOTION by Plaintiff Legend Pictures, LLC for leave to file certain documents under seal

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The clerk shall update the case caption to reflect that Plaintiff is Legend Pictures, LLC. The Court grants the motion to seal [7], but upon review of the complaint, the Court sua sponte raises the propriety of joining 80 defendants in a single action. By October 3, 2025, plaintiff must file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint by October 3, 2025 with a smaller subset of defendants along with a memorandum explaining why that smaller subset of defendants is properly joined. No motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order should be filed in this matter without counsel first consulting the opinion issued in Wham-O Holding v. The Partnerships, 24 CV 12523, Dkt. 39 (N.D. Ill. Feb. 20, 2025) (Alexakis, J.). Mailed notice.
