`FINAL JUDGMENT ORDER
`
`
`
`This action having been commenced by Plaintiff, Springdale Acoustics, Inc.
`
`(“Springdale”) against the defendants operating the websites/webstores identified on Schedule
`
`“A” to Plaintiff’s Complaint (collectively, the “Infringing Webstores”), and Plaintiff having
`
`moved for entry of Default and Default Judgment against the defendants not already dismissed,
`
`identified in Appendix “A” (collectively, the “Defaulting Defendants”);
`
`This Court having entered upon a showing by Plaintiff a temporary restraining order and
`
`preliminary injunction against Defaulting Defendants;
`
`Plaintiff having properly completed service of process on Defaulting Defendants,
`
`providing notice via e-mail, along with any notice that Defaulting Defendants received from the
`
`ecommerce platforms, hosts, and payment processors, being notice reasonably calculated under
`
`all circumstances to apprise Defaulting Defendants of the pendency of the action and affording
`
`them the opportunity to answer and present their objections; and
`
`Defaulting Defendants having failed to answer the Complaint or otherwise
`
`plead, and the time for answering the Complaint having expired;
`
`

`

`Case: 1:21-cv-02789 Document #: 60 Filed: 11/04/21 Page 2 of 11 PageID #:1172
`
`THIS COURT HEREBY FINDS that it has personal jurisdiction over Defaulting
`
`Defendants because Defaulting Defendants directly target their business activities toward
`
`consumers in the United States, including Illinois. Specifically, Defaulting Defendants are
`
`reaching out to do business with Illinois residents by operating one or more commercial,
`
`interactive Infringing Websites through which Illinois residents can purchase products bearing
`
`counterfeit versions of the RING SNUGGIES mark, U.S. Reg. No. 1563277 (the “Mark).
`
`The registration is valid, unrevoked, and uncancelled. Defendants use the mark and
`
`display images protected by trademark and copyright on the infringing websites without
`
`Plaintiff’s permission or consent.
`
`THIS COURT FURTHER FINDS that Defaulting Defendants are liable for willful
`
`federal trademark infringement and counterfeiting (15 U.S.C. § 1114), false designation of origin
`
`(15 U.S.C. § 1125(a)), and violation of the Illinois Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act (815
`
`ILCS § 510, et seq.).
`
`IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Entry of Default and Default
`
`Judgment is GRANTED in its entirety, that Defaulting Defendants are deemed in default and
`
`that this Final Judgment is entered against Defaulting Defendants.
`
`IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that
`
`1. Defendants, their affiliates, officers, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, confederates,
`
`and all persons acting for, with, by, through, under or in active concert with them be permanently
`
`enjoined and restrained from:
`
`a. using the RING SNUGGIES trademark or any reproductions, counterfeit copies or
`
`colorable imitations thereof in any manner in connection with the distribution, marketing,
`
`advertising, offering for sale, or sale of any product that is not a genuine Sprindale

`
`product or not authorized by Plaintiff to be sold in connection with the RING
`
`SNUGGIES Trademark;
`
`b. passing off, inducing, or enabling others to sell or pass off any product as a genuine
`
`Sprindale product or any other product produced by Plaintiff, that is not Plaintiff’s or not
`
`produced under the authorization, control or supervision of Sprindale and approved by
`
`Plaintiff for sale under the RING SNUGGIES Trademark;
`
`c. committing any acts calculated to cause consumers to believe that Defendants’
`
`Counterfeit Products are those sold under the authorization, control or supervision of
`
`Sprindale, or are sponsored by, approved by, or otherwise connected with Sprindale;
`
`d. further infringing the RING SNUGGIES trademark and damaging Plaintiff’s goodwill;
`
`e. otherwise competing unfairly with Plaintiff in any manner;
`
`f. manufacturing, shipping, delivering, holding for sale, transferring or otherwise moving,
`
`storing, distributing, returning, or otherwise disposing of, in any manner, products or
`
`inventory not manufactured by or for Plaintiff, nor authorized by Plaintiff to be sold or
`
`offered for sale, and which bear any of the RING SNUGGIES trademark, or any
`
`reproductions, counterfeit copies or colorable imitations thereof;
`
`g. using, linking to, transferring, selling, exercising control over, or otherwise owning or
`
`operating the infringing webstores, websites, or any other domain name that is being used
`
`to sell or is the means by which Defendants could continue to sell Counterfeit Products;
`
`h. operating and/or hosting infringing webstores, websites and any other domain names
`
`registered or operated by Defendants that are involved with the distribution, marketing,
`
`advertising, offering for sale, or sale of any product bearing the RING SNUGGIES
`
`trademark or any reproductions, counterfeit copies or colorable imitations thereof that is

`
`not a genuine Sprindale product or not authorized by Sprindale to be sold in connection
`
`with the RING SNUGGIES trademark;
`
`i. registering any additional stores, websites, or domain names that use or incorporate any of
`
`the RING SNUGGIES trademark; and
`
`j. using images covered by the PLAINTIFF’s Copyrights or any of PLAINTIFF’s original
`
`photographs that Sprindale uses to advertise the sale of original Sprindale products.

`with the Defaulting Defendants listed on Schedule “A” not dismissed from this action;
`
`and
`
`b. disable any account linked to Defaulting Defendants, linked to any e-mail addresses used
`
`by Defaulting Defendants, or linked to any of the Infringing webstores/websites.
`
`Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1117(c)(1), Plaintiff is awarded statutory damages from each of the
`
`Defaulting Defendants in the amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars (U.S.) and No Cents
`
`($100,000.00) for using counterfeit RING SNUGGIES Trademark on products sold through at
