(See Ho Decl. [DE 6-6] ¶ 5; see also USPTO Registration [DE 1-6].) The PXG Marks are used in connection with the manufacture and distribution of high-quality goods in the categories identified above. (See id.) Plaintiffs allege that Defendants, through e-commerce stores operating via Internet marketplace platforms under their seller identification names or commercial Internet websites operating under their domain names identified on Schedule “A” (the “Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names”), have advertised, promoted, offered for sale, or sold goods bearing what Plaintiffs have determined to be counterfeits, infringements, reproductions and/or colorable imitations of the Taylor Made Golf Marks, Acushnet Marks, Cleveland Golf Marks, Karsten Marks, and PXG Marks (collectively, the “Plaintiffs’ Marks”). (See Strojan Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Rogan Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Gingrich Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Hawken Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Ho Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Gigante Decl. [DE 6-6] ¶ 2; Burns Decl. [DE 6-7] ¶ 4.) Although each Defendant may not copy and infringe each of Plaintiffs’ Marks for each category of goods protected, Plaintiffs have submitted sufficient evidence showing that each Defendant has infringed, at least, one or more of Plaintiffs Marks. (See Strojan Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Rogan Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Gingrich Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Hawken Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Ho Decl. ¶¶ 13-15.) Defendants are not now, nor have they ever been, authorized or licensed to use, reproduce, or make counterfeits, reproductions, or colorable imitations of Plaintiffs’ Marks. (See id. ¶ 11.) Plaintiffs’ counsel retained Invisible Inc (“Invisible”), a licensed private investigative firm, to investigate the promotion and sale of counterfeit and infringing versions of Plaintiffs’ branded products by Defendants and to obtain the available payment account data for receipt of funds paid to Defendants for the sale of counterfeit versions of Plaintiffs’ branded merchandise through the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names. (See Strojan Decl. ¶ 12; Rogan Decl. ¶ 12; Gingrich Decl. ¶ 12; Hawken Decl. ¶ 12; Ho Decl. ¶ 12; Gigante Decl. ¶ 2; Burns Decl. ¶ 3.) Invisible accessed

the e-commerce stores and commercial websites operating under Defendants’ Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names. Then Invisible placed orders from each Defendant for the purchase of various products – all bearing counterfeits of at least one of Plaintiffs’ Marks at issue in this action – and requested that each product be shipped to addresses in the Southern District of Florida. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4.) Following submission of the orders, Invisible finalized payment1 for the products ordered from Defendants to Defendants’ respective payment accounts and/or payee2 which are identified

1 Invisible was instructed not to transmit the funds to finalize the sale for the orders from Defendant Numbers 23-195, so as to avoid adding additional money to Defendants’ coffers. (See Gigante Decl. ¶ 2, n.1; Burns Decl. ¶ 4, n.1.).

2 Defendant Numbers 1-155 operate via the non-party e-commerce marketplace platform, Wish.com, which is operated by ContextLogic Inc. The payee for the orders placed from Defendants’ Wish.com Seller IDs identifies “PayPal *Wish,” which is the aggregate PayPal account for purchases made Wish.com. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4 n.2; Gigante Decl. ¶ 4.)

Defendant Numbers 156-175 operate via the non-party e-commerce marketplace platform Joom.com, which is operated by SIA Joom. The payee for the orders placed from Defendants’ Joom.com Seller IDs identifies “Joom USA Inc,” which is the aggregate PayPal account for purchases made via Joom.com. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4 n.2; Gigante Decl. ¶ 5.)

Defendant Numbers 176-205 operate via the non-party Internet marketplace platform, AliExpress.com, and have their payments processed on their behalf using Alipay. Alipay accepts and processes payments on behalf of its individual merchants, and can tie a particular Seller ID and/or store number to a reported transaction and identify the merchant’s funds held in sub- accounts within its aggregate account. Additionally, Defendant Numbers 195-197 and 202-205 use money transfer and retention services with PayPal as an alternative payment method. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4 n.2; Gigante Decl. ¶ 6.) Defendant Numbers 206-221 use money transfer and retention services with PayPal, Inc. Further, upon completion of Invisible’s purchase from Defendant Number 218, no PayPal e-mail account on Schedule “A” hereto.3 (Id.) At the conclusion of the process, the detailed web page captures and images of products offered for sale and ordered by Invisible from Defendants were sent to Plaintiffs’ representatives for review. (See Strojan Decl. ¶ 13; Rogan Decl. ¶ 13; Gingrich Decl. ¶ 13; Hawken Decl. ¶ 13; Ho Decl. ¶ 13; Gigante Decl. ¶ 2; Burns Decl. ¶ 4.) Plaintiffs’

representatives reviewed and visually inspected the various products and determined the products were non-genuine versions of Plaintiffs’ products. (See Strojan Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Rogan Decl. ¶¶ 13- 15; Gingrich Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Hawken Decl. ¶¶ 13-15; Ho Decl. ¶¶ 13-15.) On March 3, 2020, Plaintiffs filed their Complaint [DE 1] against Defendants for federal trademark counterfeiting and infringement, false designation of origin, common law unfair competition, and common law trademark infringement. On March 6, 2020, Plaintiffs filed their Ex Parte Application for Entry of Temporary Restraining Order, Preliminary Injunction, and Order Restraining Transfer of Assets [DE 6]. On April 9, 2020, this Court entered an Order Granting Ex Parte Application for Entry of Temporary Restraining Order (the “TRO”) and temporarily restrained Defendants from infringing Plaintiffs’ Marks at issue and restrained funds in the

payment accounts associated with the Defendants. On April 13, 2020, this Court entered a Sealed Notice of Resetting Hearing. Pursuant to the Court’s April 9, 2020 TRO, Plaintiffs properly served Defendants with a copy of the Complaint, the Court’s April 9, 2020 TRO and April 13, 2020 Notice, and other filings in this matter. On April 23, 2020, the Court conducted a hearing on Plaintiffs’ Motion, at which only counsel for Plaintiffs was in attendance

was provided on the transaction page. However, PayPal, Inc. is able to identify a PayPal account using the Transaction ID. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4 n.2.)

3 Additional contact email addresses for Defendant Numbers 194 ([email protected]), 202 ([email protected]), 216 ([email protected]), and 220 ([email protected]) are is also identified on Schedule “A” hereto. (See Burns Decl. ¶ 4 n.3.) II. LEGAL STANDARD To obtain a preliminary injunction, a party must demonstrate “(1) a substantial likelihood of success on the merits; (2) that irreparable injury will be suffered if the relief is not granted; (3) that the threatened injury outweighs the harm the relief would inflict on the non-movant; and (4)

that entry of the relief would serve the public interest.” Schiavo ex. rel Schindler v. Schiavo,

403 F.3d 1223

, 1225–26 (11th Cir. 2005); see also Levi Strauss & Co. v. Sunrise Int’l. Trading Inc.,

51 F.3d 982

, 985 (11th Cir. 1995) (applying the test to a preliminary injunction in a Lanham Act case). III. DISCUSSION Based on declarations submitted in support of Plaintiffs’ Motion, the Court concludes that Plaintiffs have a strong probability of proving at trial that consumers are likely to be confused by Defendants’ advertisement, promotion, sale, offer for sale, or distribution of goods bearing counterfeits, reproductions, or colorable imitations of Plaintiffs’ Marks, and that the products Defendants are selling and promoting for sale are copies of Plaintiffs’ products that bear copies of

Plaintiffs’ Marks. The infringement of Plaintiffs’ Marks will likely cause Plaintiffs’ to suffer immediate and irreparable injury if a preliminary injunction is not granted. The following specific facts, as set forth in Plaintiffs’ Complaint, Motion, and accompanying declarations, demonstrate that immediate and irreparable loss, damage, and injury will result to Plaintiffs and to consumers because it is more likely true than not that: 1. Defendants own or control e-commerce stores via Internet marketplace platforms or commercial Internet websites operating under their seller identification names and domain names which advertise, promote, offer for sale, and sell products bearing counterfeit and infringing trademarks in violation of Plaintiffs’ rights; and 2. There is good cause to believe that more counterfeit and infringing products bearing Plaintiffs’ Marks will appear in the marketplace; that consumers are likely to be misled, confused, or disappointed by the quality of these products; and that Plaintiffs may suffer loss of sales for their genuine products.

The potential harm to Defendants in restraining their trade in counterfeit and infringing branded goods if a preliminary injunction is issued is far outweighed by the potential harm to Plaintiffs, their reputations, and their goodwill as manufacturers and distributors of quality products, if such relief is not issued. The public interest favors issuance of the preliminary injunction to protect Plaintiffs’ trademark interests and protect the public from being defrauded by the palming off of counterfeit goods as Plaintiffs’ genuine goods. Further, under

15 U.S.C. § 1117

(a), Plaintiffs may be entitled to recover, as an equitable remedy, the illegal profits gained through Defendants’ distribution and sales of goods bearing counterfeits and infringements of Plaintiffs’ Marks. See Levi Strauss & Co. v. Sunrise Int’l Trading Inc.,

51 F.3d 982

, 987 (11th Cir. 1995); Reebok Int’l, Ltd. v. Marnatech Enters., Inc.,

970 F.2d 552

, 558–63 (9th Cir. 1992). In

light of the inherently deceptive nature of the counterfeiting business, and the likelihood that Defendants have violated federal trademark laws, Plaintiffs have good reason to believe Defendants will hide or transfer their ill-gotten assets beyond the jurisdiction of this Court unless those assets are restrained. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [DE 6] is GRANTED according to the terms set forth as follows: (1) Each Defendant, its officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, distributors, and all persons in active concert or participation with any Defendant having notice of this Order are hereby restrained and enjoined until further Order of this Court: a. From manufacturing, importing, advertising, promoting, offering to sell, selling, distributing, or transferring any products bearing Plaintiffs’ Marks, or any confusingly similar trademarks, other than those actually manufactured or distributed by Plaintiffs; and

b. From secreting, concealing, destroying, selling off, transferring, or otherwise disposing of: (i) any products, not manufactured or distributed by Plaintiffs, bearing and/or using Plaintiffs’ Marks, or any confusingly similar trademarks; (ii) any evidence relating to the manufacture, importation, sale, offer for sale, distribution, or transfer of any products bearing and/or using Plaintiffs’ Marks, or any confusingly similar trademarks; or (iii) any assets or other financial accounts subject to this Order, including inventory assets, in the actual or constructive possession of, or owned, controlled, or held by, or subject to access by, any Defendant, including, but not limited to, any assets held by or on behalf of any Defendant.

(2) Each Defendant, its officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, distributors, and all persons in active concert or participation with any Defendant having notice of this Order shall immediately discontinue, until further Order of this Court, the use of Plaintiffs’ Marks or any confusingly similar trademarks, on or in connection with all Internet based e- commerce stores and Internet websites owned and operated, or controlled by them, including the Internet based e-commerce stores and Internet websites operating under the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names; (3) Each Defendant, its officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, distributors, and all persons in active concert or participation with any Defendant having notice of this Order shall immediately discontinue, until further Order of this Court, the use of Plaintiffs’ Marks, or any confusingly similar trademarks within metatags or other markers within website source code, from use on any webpage (including as the title of any web page), from any advertising links to other websites, from search engines’ databases or cache memory, and any other form of use of such terms that are visible to a computer user or serves to direct computer searches to Internet based e-commerce stores and Internet websites registered, owned, or operated by any Defendant, including the Internet based e-commerce stores and Internet websites operating under

the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names; (4) Each Defendant shall not transfer ownership of the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names during the pendency of this action, or until further order of the Court; (5) Each Defendant shall continue to preserve copies of all computer files relating to the use of any of the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names and shall take all steps necessary to retrieve computer files relating to the use of the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names that may have been deleted before the entry of this Order; (6) Upon receipt of notice of this Order, Defendants and all financial institutions, payment processors, banks, escrow services, money transmitters, or marketplace platforms, including but not limited to, Alibaba.com Hong Kong Limited, which operates the AliExpress.com

(collectively, “Alipay”), Worldpay US, Inc. (“Worldpay”), ContextLogic, Inc., which operates the Wish.com website (“ContextLogic”), SIA Joom, which operates the Joom.com platform (“Joom”), and PayPal, Inc. (“PayPal”), and their related companies and affiliates shall, to the extent not already done, (i) immediately identify all financial accounts and/or sub-accounts, associated with the Internet based e-commerce stores and Internet websites operating under the Seller IDs and Subject Domain Names, and/or the e-mail addresses identified on Schedule “A” hereto, as well as any other accounts of the same customer(s); (ii) identify all other accounts which transfer funds into the same financial institution account(s) or any of the other financial accounts subject to this Order; (iii) restrain the transfer of all funds, as opposed to ongoing account activity, held or received for their benefit or to be transferred into their respective financial accounts, and any other financial accounts tied thereto; and (iv) immediately divert those restrained funds to a holding
