CIVIL ACTION

VERSUS

NO: 17-11767

JOLIE DESIGN & DECOR,
INC.

SECTION: "S" (1)

ORDER AND REASONS
IT IS ORDERED that Defendants' Motion for Clarification of Preliminary
Injunction Order and to Modify Injunction Order to Set Bond (Rec. Doc. 227)
is hereby DENIED IN PART and GRANTED IN PART.
On October 12, 2018, this court entered a preliminary injunction enjoining
defendants from various activities. Rec. Doc. 214. Subsequently, defendants have
moved to clarify the order with respect to whether they are (1) allowed under the order
permanently to re-label existing lithographed cans; and (2) to rectify and prepare
advertising and promotional materials for use after November 5, 2018. Defendants
also request that the order be modified to set a bond in accordance with Federal Rule
of Civil Procedure 65(c).
Having reviewed the record, the memoranda of counsel, and applicable law, the
court denies the motion in part, finding that the requested clarification exceeds the

scope of the injunction. The court grants the motion in part, modifying the order to set
a bond of $100,000.00, which shall be posted within five (5) days of entry of this
order. The surety company shall be provided with a copy of the order of injunction.
