MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal [4] is granted as to the request to file Docs. 2-2 and 2-3 under seal and denied as to the request to file Doc. 2 and 2-1 under seal and to proceed under a pseudonym. Exceptional circumstances have not been shown to proceed anonymously. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(a) ("The title of the complaint must name all the parties[.]"); Doe v. Village of Deerfield, 819 F.3d 372, 377 (7th Cir. 2016) ("To proceed anonymously, a party must demonstrate 'exceptional circumstances' that outweigh both the public policy in favor of identified parties and the prejudice to the opposing party that would result from anonymity."); XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2020 WL 6681360, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 12, 2020) ("No-name litigation is the rare exception, not the Rule."). "There is insufficient evidence. that Schedule A defendants are taking advantage of the case-tracking option to such an extent that it is materially impeding brand owners' enforcement efforts." XYZ Corp. v. Partn. & Unincorporated Ass'ns Identified on Schedule A, 2022 WL 180151, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Jan. 20, 2022). Accordingly, by 9/26/2025, plaintiff shall file an amended complaint that lists plaintiff's true name. Moreover, plaintiff's motion for electronic service of process and expedited discovery [14] and plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order [15] are entered and continued. Upon review of the complaint and the TRO submissions, the Court sua sponte raises the proprietary of joinder of 40 defendants in this case. See, e.g., Estee Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. v. Schedule A, 334 F.R.D. 182 (N.D. Ill. 2020). By 9/26/2025, plaintiff shall file a supplemental memorandum addressing the propriety of joinder in light of the principles described in Estee Lauder. In the alternative, plaintiff has leave to file an amended complaint with a single defendant or a smaller subset of defendants along with its memorandum explaining specifically why each defendant is properly joined to all of the others. Estee Lauder, 334 F.R.D. at 189. Mailed notice
