CANDYMOBI INFORMATION

TECHNOLOGY CO., et al., Defendants.

Simple Design’s motion for a default judgment does not provide an adequate basis for assessing the amount of damages. See Wecosign, Inc. v. IFG Holdings, Inc., 845 F. Supp. 2d 1072, 1084-85 (C.D. Cal. 2012); Sennheiser Electronic Corp. v. Eichler, 2013 WL 3811775, at *7-9 (C.D. Cal. Jul. 19, 2013). Within 14 days of this order, Simple Design is ordered to file a supplemental brief of no more than ten pages, as well as any relevant evidence, to support a damages calculation. To the extent Simple Design seeks statutory damages, the brief should also address whether the alleged infringing marks qualify as counterfeits.’ See Align Technology, Inc. v. Strauss Diamond Instruments, Inc., 2019 WL 1586776, at *11 (N.D. Cal. Apr. 12, 2019); Gibson Brands, Inc. v. John Hornby Skewes & Co., Ltd., 2016 WL 7479317, at *5-7 (C.D. Cal.
