Case No.: 2:14-cv-00718-GMN-CWH
ORDER
ORDER AND DEFAULT JUDGMENT

Pending before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate

11

Judge Carl W. Hoffman, Jr., (ECF No. 31), which recommends that Plaintiff Empire Level

12

Manufacturing Corp.’s Motion for Default Judgment (ECF No. 28) be GRANTED.

13

A party may file specific written objections to the findings and recommendations of a

14

United States Magistrate Judge made pursuant to Local Rule IB 1–4. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B);

15

D. Nev. R. IB 3–2. Upon the filing of such objections, the Court must make a de novo

16

determination of those portions to which objections are made. Id. The Court may accept, reject,

17

or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the Magistrate Judge.

18

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); D. Nev. IB 3–2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, the Court is

19

not required to conduct “any review at all ... of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.”

20

Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Indeed, the Ninth Circuit has recognized that a

21

district court is not required to review a magistrate judge's report and recommendation where

22

no objections have been filed. See, e.g., United States v. Reyna–Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1122

23

(9th Cir. 2003).

24

Here, no objections were filed, and the deadline to do so has passed. Accordingly,

25

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 31) is

ACCEPTED and ADOPTED to the extent that it is not inconsistent with this Order.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff Empire Level Manufacturing Corp.’s
Motion for Default Judgment (ECF No. 28) is GRANTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants, their agents, representatives and any

5

other person acting in concert or participation with them, are permanently enjoined from further

6

use, in connection with a level, of the infringing trademark and trade dress or any other

7

trademark confusingly similar to the Empire trademark (United States Trademark Registration

8

No. 2,833,616) or trade dress which is a colorable imitation of the Empire trademark and/or

9

trade dress.

10

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that that Defendants, their agents, representatives and

11

any other person acting in concert or participation with them, are permanently enjoined from

12

further use of any promotional materials, including without limitation displays on Defendants’

13

websites, including the infringing trademark or trade dress.

14

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, pursuant to 15 USC § 1125(b), United States

15

Customs shall refuse entry into the United States and seize any products of Defendants bearing

16

an infringing trademark and/or trade dress.

17
18
19

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants shall deliver up for destruction all
infringing products in the United States to which they hold title, if any.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants shall deliver up for destruction all

20

catalogs, literature, advertising, negatives, photographs and other materials in the United States

21

in the possession or under the control of Defendants bearing representations of the infringing

22

trademark and/or trade dress.

23
24
25

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Preliminary Injunction (See ECF No. 25) is
hereby dissolved and the related cash bond is released.
DATED this 3rd day of June, 2015.
