A very SAD lady that speaks out about Schedule A lawsuits. The SAD scheme.

I will go on about this a lot and probably not much else. I'm talking to defendants most days, from across the world. #MoralSupport

Pro se answer in one of the Tesla #ScheduleA cases says the defendant only sold $35 worth of the accused product, never to Florida, and not since 2022:

The maker of Robecurls proudly pitches potential investors that SAD Scheme litigation is an "alternative revenue source"

Just stumbled across this...

The Defendant's counsel pointing out the current case "is a refiled case" and they "dismissed the [original] case and refiled it as the current case as soon as that [original] case was assigned to Judge Seeger".

Brilliant stuff - and this one keeps pointing out the errors.

And just like that, the day before the hearing, it's cancelled and the judge issues the preliminary injunction, that no defendant is likely to have had chance to object to. Receiving the summons and documents on a Friday of a long holiday weekend so noone able to get any legal advice most likely, until yesterday if lucky enough.

How is this fair on anyone?

It's half term here in the UK so I've being doing well, not really doing much social media type stuff.

I've just got wind of a Minecraft schedule A hearing tomorrow, and as I haven't listened in to an NDIL hearing this year, I may just have to have a listen, see how things are going in Illinois courts see if any defendants show up. Doubt it but maybe worth a listen to a judge I've not heard before in these cases.

Oh, this is potentially big. Dyson denied profits in a trademark #ScheduleA case. At oral argument, two judges "pushed back on the notion that [Dyson] was at all entitled to a profits award in the case."

Of course, oral arguments can mislead as to the way a case will ultimately go.

But if the panel goes against Dyson/GBC, that would be a big deal.

Dyson Says It Deserves Counterfeiters' Profits - Law360

Dyson told the Seventh Circuit on Thursday that a district court's refusal to award it profits from several e-commerce shops that defaulted in a trademark counterfeiting lawsuit should be reversed because it essentially "punished" the company by requiring it to provide proof that defendants should have offered.

ahh, no attorneys, only 3 defendants. All sounding very desperate and managed to annoy the judge.

Bit of a shambles really, but very sad hearing the desperation. People think they will lose their homes.

Another hearing to nosey at coming up in 10 minutes. The last time I listened to this particular brands hearing call, I was surprised by the number of attorney appearances for some big well know companies.

We see if they learnt from the last 2023 case ..

The Plaintiff put up the screenshot evidence, & the judge decided that as the word was in the title of the product and the design was what you associate with the trademarked word, it seemed like infringement. No mention of it being willful or not, or any possible confusion, fair use, ornamental use etc.

The judge told all the defendants the preliminary injunction is still ordered against them all, even though they're all not related.

Their cases would be continued individually.
