JEFFREY WILENS,

No. C 14-02419 LB

ORDER REGARDING PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO SERVE

DOE 1 BY EMAIL

In this case involving Plaintiff Jeffrey Wilens’s claims for trademark infringement and violation

of the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, Mr. Wilens seeks leave to serve Defendant Doe

1 by email. See Motion, ECF No. 45. His request shows his extensive efforts to find Doe 1, and

those efforts support granting his request, but his declaration asserts factual allegations that ought to

be supported by appropriate references that either establish the basis of knowledge (e.g., how Mr.

Wilens knows that the website(s) exists) or documents the fact assertion (e.g., a screenshot of the

web site(s)). The court thus directs Mr. Wilens to file a declaration by January 16, 2015 that

sufficiently supports his motion. Upon receipt of it, the court will issue an order regarding his

motion.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 12, 2015 _______________________________
