opposition or otherwise appeared in the action.

Rule 55(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires a Plaintiff seeking a

default judgment to show the following: (1) when and against which party default was entered;

(2) the identification of the pleading to which default was entered; (3) whether the defaulting

party is an infant or incompetent person, and if so, whether that person is adequately represented;

(4) that the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940 does not apply; and (5) that notice of

the application has been served on the defaulting party, if required. 

Nike’s application for default judgment complies with the requirements of Fed. R. Civ. P.

55(b)(2), as evidenced in the declarations of Heather Holdridge, David W. Simpson, and Annie

Wang. Good cause having been shown, and without opposition, the application for default

judgment in the amount of $125,000, plus post-judgment interest pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

1961(a), is hereby GRANTED. The request for permanent injunction is GRANTED. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
