MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: An initial status report is due by October 10, 2022. Counsel must read the Standing Order entitled "Initial Status Conferences and Joint Initial Status Reports" on the Court's website. The parties must confer as required by Rule 26(f) about the nature, scope, and duration of discovery. The parties must submit two documents to the Court. First, the parties must file the Joint Initial Status Report under Rule 26(f) on the docket. A Word version of the Joint Initial Status Report is available on the Court's website. All parties must participate in the preparation and filing of the Joint Initial Status Report. The Court requires a joint report, so a filing by one side or the other is not sufficient. Second, the parties must email a Word version of a proposed Scheduling Order under Rule 16(b) to the Court's proposed order inbox. Lead counsel for the parties must participate in filing the initial status report. Plaintiff must serve this Order on all other parties. If the defendant has not been served with process, plaintiff's counsel must contact the Courtroom Deputy at jessica_j_ramos@ilnd.uscourts.gov to reschedule the initial status report deadline. Plaintiff should not file the Joint Initial Status Report before the defendant(s) has been served with process. The parties must discuss settlement in good faith and make a serious attempt to resolve this case amicably. All counsel of record must read and comply with this Court's Standing Orders on its webpage. Please pay special attention to the Standing Orders about Depositions and Discovery. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed Plaintiff's motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order (Dckt. No. 10 ). The proposed minute order includes a request for an asset freeze. By August 19, 2022, Plaintiff must file a statement and point to the statutory provision that gives this Court the power to impose an asset freeze at the outset of the case. If Plaintiff cannot point to a specific statutory provision, then Plaintiff must address how its request for an asset freeze is consistent with Grupo Mexicano de Desarrollo S.A. v. Alliance Bond Fund, Inc., 527 U.S. 308 (1999). In its memo, Plaintiff argues that "[c]ourts have the inherent authority to issue a prejudgment asset restraint when plaintiff's complaint seeks relief in equity." See Mem., at 12. In Grupo Mexicano, the Supreme Court held that a district court has "no authority to issue a preliminary injunction preventing [a defendant] from disposing of their assets pending adjudication of [plaintiff's] contract claim for money damages." Id. at 333. The Supreme Court adhered to the long-standing rule that "a judgment establishing the debt was necessary before a court of equity would interfere with the debtor's use of his property." Id. at 321. "However, the [Grupo] [C]ourt specifically noted that a restraint on assets was still proper if a suit sought equitable relief." See CSC Holdings, Inc. v. Redisi, 309 F.3d 988, 996 (7th Cir. 2002) (citing Grupo, 527 U.S. at 333; Deckert v. Independence Shares Corp., 311 U.S. 282, 288 (1940)). "[A]s a general matter [] prejudgment asset restraints are not proper simply to establish a fund from which a later award of money damages can be satisfied." See Banister v. Firestone, 2018 WL 4224444, at *9 (N.D. Ill. 2018). An equitable restraint at the outset of the case might be doable if Plaintiff obtained equitable monetary relief at the end of the day, like an accounting of profits. See Deckers Outdoor Corp. v. Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A, 2013 WL 12314399 (N.D. Ill. 2013). But as a practical matter, in Schedule A cases, that recovery almost never happens, if at all. Instead, plaintiffs rush into court, seek and obtain an asset freeze, obtain a default judgment, and then ask district courts to unfreeze the money and award statutory damages, not equitable relief. In that scenario, it is not clear to this Court that it would be appropriate to use any frozen funds for any recovery of statutory damages, because statutory damages are a remedy at law, not a remedy in equity. If Plaintiff believes that it is appropriate for this Court to freeze funds at the outset of the case, and then use those funds to recover statutory damages (not equitable monetary relief) at the end of the case, then Plaintiff must explain why.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion to seal (Dckt. No. 8 ) is hereby granted. Plaintiff's other motion to seal (Dckt. No. 11 ) is hereby granted. Plaintiff's motion for an ex parte TRO (Dckt. No. 10 ) is hereby granted in part as stated in the accompanying order. Temporary Restraining Order to follow. This Court authorizes service of process, as well as service of all filings in this case, by electronic publication and/or by email pursuant to Rule 4(f)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. For now, the Court is granting an asset freeze. But this Court is inclined to lift the asset freeze at a later time unless Plaintiff later seeks equitable monetary relief (like an accounting of profits) or unless Plaintiff can point this Court to a statute that expressly authorizes an asset freeze in connection with statutory damages. Plaintiff must effectuate service of process by October 7, 2022. Responses to the complaint are due by October 21, 2022. Motions for default and default judgment are due by October 24, 2022. Responses are due by October 27, 2022. A failure to comply will lead to dismissal. The Court directs counsel to serve a copy of this Order and any forthcoming motion on Defendants, and file a certificate of service. Mailed notice (jjr, ) (Entered: 10/05/2022)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion for an extension of time (Dckt. No. 18 ) is hereby granted in part and denied in part. Plaintiff basically argues that it cannot serve process now because it does not have the email addresses of Defendants. So, the Court vacates the deadline to serve process. The Court directs Plaintiff to file a status report by October 14, 2022, and make every effort to move the ball forward in the meantime. In Schedule A cases generally, Plaintiffs typically know the email addresses of the defendants at the outset of the case. So, if Plaintiff lacks the email addresses by October 14, Plaintiff must explain why. Mailed notice. (jjr, ) (Entered: 10/06/2022)
