ORDER
Plaintiff,
15-cv-587-bbc
v.
VENTEC CANADA, INC. and
VDK PRODUCTS BV,
Defendants.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Plaintiff Lt. Hampel Corp. is suing defendants Ventec Canada, Inc. and VDK
Products for trademark infringement. In particular, plaintiff says that it and defendants sell
calf housing in the United States and that defendants are infringing plaintiff’s “Calf-Tel”
mark by using the name “CalfOTel” for their calf housing.
On September 22, 2015, plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction, dkt. #4,
along with a request for an “expedited hearing,” dkt. #9, on the ground that plaintiff believes
that defendants will be using the allegedly infringing mark at the World Dairy Expo, which
begins next week. Plaintiff’s request for an expedited hearing is GRANTED. The court will
hold a hearing on plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction at 9:00 a.m. on September
30, 2015 in Courtroom 260. Defendants may have until September 28, 2015 at noon to
file a response to plaintiff’s motion.
Because defendants have not yet made a notice of appearance in this case, it is

1

plaintiff’s responsibility to serve this order and all other filings in this case on defendants.
If plaintiff does not file proof of service by September 24, 2015 at noon, I will cancel the
hearing and briefing schedule until proof of service is filed.
Entered this 23d day of September, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
