2012-03-07 | 8 | 0 | order on motion for order | MINUTE entry before Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Plaintiff's motion to serve limited discovery [5] on the internet service providers is granted, in light of the need to identify the individuals associated with the IP addresses. However, this order should not be interpreted as concluding that personal jurisdiction over any of the defendants is proper, nor that joinder is proper. Those issues may require further attention after identification of the individuals. A status hearing is set for 04/23/12 at 8:30 a.m. to check on the progress of identification.

2012-05-01 | 17 | 0 | order on motion to quash | MINUTE entry before Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Status and motion hearing held. With regard to Defendant Doe 96.35.21.42s motion to quash and/or vacate subpoena served on Charter Communications [12], Plaintiff's response is due 05/22/12, and Doe 96.35.21.42 may reply on 06/05/12. Plaintiff's response must specifically describe, through evidence, the "geolocation" mechanism that Plaintiff used to identify the location of the named IP addresses (including 96.35.21.42) as being in Illinois. The Court also notes that the motion to quash seems to mistakenly assume that if Charter were to comply with the subpoena and identify Doe, then as a matter of law the Court would have personal jurisdiction over Doe. That is not the case; Doe would reserve his or her right to challenge personal jurisdiction. The Court further notes that Doe 96.35.21.42 is litigating the quash-motion anonymously, which is heavily disfavored. Doe 96.35.21.42 must address that issue in the reply brief. On Plaintiffs motion to compel against Comcast [13], Comcast's response is due on 05/15/12. Plaintiff may reply on 05/29/12. The ruling on the motion to compel might very well bear on all of the Does; Plaintiff and Comcast should address (among any other issues they wish to address) whether Plaintiff has properly joined the defendants via a defined single swarm. No amended complaint shall be filed until resolution of the motions before the Court. Status hearing set for 06/27/12 at 8:30 a.m. Mailed notice (slb, ) | 2012-05-03 13:45:40 | 702bdf9d6d7e333d940af891f621f640b7e71cde |
