06/03/24	Steel City Enterprisess Inc v. T Schedule A 1:23-CV-03252 ( N.D. IL )	DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER Signed by the Honorable Jeffrey I Cummings on 6/3/2024. Mailed notice (cc, ) (Entered: 06/03/2024)
05/21/24	Steel City Enterprisess Inc v. T Schedule A 1:23-CV-03252 ( N.D. IL )	MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey I Cummings: The Court has reviewed plaintiff's motion for default judgment 53 and plaintiff's amended supplemental memorandum in support of plaintiff's motion for default judgment 61 . Plaintiff's motion for default judgment 53 is granted as follows. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. Â§Â§285 and 289, the Court enters judgment against the six remaining defendants identified on page 7 of plaintiff's amended supplemental memorandum (excluding dismissed defendant no. 12 67 ) in the amounts specified by plaintiff on page 7, which includes the known revenue of infringing sales, trebled pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Â§284 plus an additional $674.82 per defendant in attorney's fees. See Shatterproof Glass Corp. v. Libbey-Owens Ford Co., 758 F.2d 613, 628 (Fed.Cir. 1985) (a finding of willfulness is sufficient to support treble damages); The Goat LLC v. Advanced Wholesale LLC, No. 23-CV-1526-JPS, 2024 WL 1603512, at 1617 (E.D. Wis. Apr. 12, 2024) (noting that the Patent Act allows "for an award of attorney's fees to the prevailing party in 'exceptional cases'" and that "one factor suggesting that the case may be 'exceptional' is a defendant's default and/or failure to defend."); Screenco Sys., LLC v. Scott Septic & Portables, Inc., No. 123CV00305JPHCSW, 2024 WL 1307142, at 3 (S.D.Ind. Mar. 26, 2024) (same). For the remaining defendants identified on page 6 of plaintiff's amended supplemental memorandum (excluding dismissed defendants nos. 9 and 79 64 65 ), the Court enters judgment against each defendant in the amount of a $500 royalty plus an additional $674.82 in attorney's fees per defendant. The Court, within its discretion, denies plaintiff's request for an award of $50,000 in transactional cost. Plaintiff did not seek such an award in its motion for default judgment and its initial supporting memorandum 54, and the Court finds that plaintiff has not adequately supported such an award based on the record before the Court. By 5/29/24, plaintiff shall submit a proposed final judgment order consistent with this Order to the Court's proposed order inbox.
