STIPULATED TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER

MARCO A. HERNÁNDEZ, District Judge.

Plaintiff Centerpointe Research Institute, Inc. ("CRI") moved for entry of a Temporary Restraining Order and for Order to Show Cause Why a Preliminary Injunction Should Not Enter (the "Motion") against Defendants Michael Singleterry ("Singleterry") and Law of Attraction Coach ("LOA Coach," and together with Singleterry, "Defendants"). ECF 4-6. The parties have stipulated to the entry of this temporary restraining order ("Stipulated Order"). The Court, having considered CRI's Complaint, Motion, supporting declarations, exhibits, and memorandum of law filed in support of the Motion, and the terms of this Stipulated Order, finds that:

FINDINGS

By stipulation of the parties, the Court finds as follows:

1. CRI and Defendants have stipulated and agreed to entry of this Stipulated Order without any admission of wrongdoing or violation of law, and without a finding by the Court of law or fact other than stated below.

2. The Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this case, and there is good cause to believe it will have jurisdiction over Defendants.

3. Venue in the District of Oregon is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b)(1) and (2) and LR 3-2.

4. CRI asserts that there is good cause to believe that Defendants have engaged in, and are likely to engage in the future in, acts and practices that violate the Defend Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1832 to § 1839, and the Oregon Uniform Trade Secrets Act, ORS 646.461 to ORS 646.475, and CRI asserts that it is therefore likely to prevail on the merits of this action. Solely for purposes of this Stipulated Order, Defendants, without waiving their rights and defenses in this action, do not contest CRI's assertions.

5. CRI asserts that there is good cause to believe that immediate and irreparable damage to CRI will ensue if the relief sought in this Stipulated Order is not granted. Solely for purposes of this Stipulated Order, Defendants, without waiving their rights and defenses in this action, do not contest CRI's assertions.

6. CRI asserts that weighing the equities and considering the public interest support the issuance of the relief sought in this Stipulated Order. Solely for purposes of this Stipulated Order, Defendants, without waiving their rights and defenses in this action, do not contest CRI's assertion.

7. CRI asserts that for purposes of working towards an expeditious resolution of this dispute, posting of security pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(c) is not necessary. Solely for purposes of this Stipulated Order, Defendants, without waiving their rights and defenses in this action, do not contest CRI's assertion.

8. Singleterry has agreed to the entry of this Stipulated Order on the conditions that (i) nothing in or about this Stipulated Order is or should be construed as an admission of any kind by him and (ii) this Stipulated Order will not operate as a determination on the merits of any aspect of CRI's claims.
