ORDER

Pursuant to Columbia Insurance Co. v. Seescandy.com, 185 F.R.D. 573 (N.D. Cal. 

1999), Plaintiff has exhausted traditional avenues for identifying the Doe Defendants 

and thus, Plaintiff is entitled to limited discovery. Because the Doe Defendants 

operate pseudonymously and entirely online, Plaintiffs cannot identify the Doe 

Defendants without information from eBay and the ISPs which provide online 

services to Doe Defendants, and the Postal Annex, which is believed to provide mail 

boxes to Doe Defendants.

This Court hereby grants Plaintiff’s motion to request limited discovery upon 

the Doe Defendants and authorizes Plaintiff to serve subpoenas on the associated ISPs 

which provide services to the Web sites http://yeniluxurygoods.com,

http://designergoodsonline.com, and http://www.luxurychoices.com, and the e-mail 

addresses bennyleekw@yahoo.com, admin@yeniluxurygoods.com,

cs@yeniluxurygoods.com, cs@designergoodsonline.com, and 

cs@luxurychoices.com. Plaintiff may also serve subpoenas upon eBay to obtain 

information regarding the seller name, “auction-luxurygoods” and the Postal Annex 

located at 100 First Street, San Francisco, California 94105 to request any contact 

information associated with the mail boxes 100 – 328.
