Seller checklist

Until the asserted rights are public, run general checks:

  • Confirm the source of every design on your products and keep design files and licenses
  • Watch for marketplace notices and emails from unfamiliar law firms, and verify any case number before responding
  • If your store is frozen in the coming days, check this case number on CourtListener

Already frozen?

Keep the platform notice, emails from plaintiff’s counsel, affected listings, and sales records. Hold off on replying to the plaintiff or signing anything, and have counsel review the case. See: Store Frozen by a TRO: The First 72 Hours.
