Shenzhen Yilian E-Commerce Co., Ltd. v. The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified On Schedule A

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Mary M. Rowland: Having reviewed Plaintiff's motion for electronic service [14], the Court is not persuaded that Plaintiff has exercised reasonable diligence in attempting to ascertain and verify Defendants' mailing addresses. Although Plaintiff dispatched test mailings to addresses listed on Defendants' seller profiles and to other addresses uncovered in its searches, Plaintiff never took the straightforward step of asking Defendants directly for their addresses. Plaintiff acknowledges that Amazon produced the email addresses associated with those seller accounts. It would appear reasonable, therefore, to contact those email addresses to inquire whether a physical address can be obtained. The motion [14] is therefore denied without prejudice to refile. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Mary M. Rowland: Motion to seal document [4] is granted. Mailed notice.
