On October 20, 2026, Fort Lauderdale firm Palmer Law Group, P.A. filed three Schedule A trademark lawsuits in Miami federal court for Blue Horizon Innovation LLC. All three were assigned to Judge K. Michael Moore:
- Two cases assert the BPPEG mark (bathroom and household goods) against 26 Amazon and Walmart sellers, split between the two cases.
- The third asserts the AOMRCOL mark (bags and wallets) against 15 more sellers.
Within two days, Judge Moore entered his standing Omnibus Order Regarding Schedule “A” Causes of Action in each case. It sets demanding conditions for any restraining order, asset freeze or alternative service, and requires a verified report on prior suits. By October 24, Blue Horizon had conceded that its first two complaints did not justify joining multiple sellers. It cut each BPPEG case to a single defendant.
This post has been rebuilt from the court filings in all three cases, along with USPTO records. It covers:
- who Blue Horizon is;
- where its trademarks came from;
- what Judge Moore requires;
- what the evidence shows;
- what sellers and brand owners should take from it.

These cases sit within a larger same-day filing program by the same firm. Case 3 (27382) was filed in sequence with CEDARFIRM LLC (27380, Judge Huck) and Bridlington Bud LTD (27381, Judge Martinez). Cases 1 and 2 (27421, 27424) were filed alongside CEDARFIRM’s second case (27422, Judge Bloom).
Who is Blue Horizon Innovation LLC?
Blue Horizon Innovation LLC describes itself as a Wyoming limited liability company. Its principal place of business is listed as 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801. That is the same address CEDARFIRM LLC uses, and one of the country’s best-known commercial registered-agent addresses:
- ICIJ reported in March 2025 that more than 266,000 companies were formed using it between 2019 and 2024.
- The Sheridan Press reported in March 2026 that it houses 26 registered agents representing close to 300,000 Wyoming LLCs.
Wyoming does not require LLCs to disclose their members publicly. Federal beneficial-ownership reporting no longer applies to U.S.-formed companies after FinCEN’s March 2025 interim rule.
The court papers and USPTO records point to a narrow role:
On the present record, Blue Horizon appears to function as a U.S. holding vehicle for trademarks registered by individuals in China. It took assignment of two unrelated registrations from two different Chinese registrants and asserted them in three Miami Schedule A suits filed on a single day. We found no evidence that it makes or sells any product, runs any storefront or website, or does business beyond owning, “licensing” and enforcing these registrations.
That is our reading of the documents, not a court finding. Blue Horizon has not yet had to answer these points, and we will update this post if it shows an operating business. What the record shows:
| Indicator | What the filings and USPTO records show |
|---|---|
| Origin of the marks | BPPEG was registered to Wu, Yufei, an individual in Shenzhen, Guangdong. AOMRCOL was registered to Li, Yuanying, an individual in Shenyang, Liaoning. Both now list Blue Horizon as owner. |
| Relationship between the marks | None apparent: bathroom and household goods (Class 21) and bags and wallets (Class 18), from unrelated registrants |
| Timing | AOMRCOL’s ownership change was recorded at the USPTO on March 4, 2026, about 7½ months before suit. BPPEG’s assignment date is not in the filings. |
| Blue Horizon’s own sales | None alleged. The complaints say only that Blue Horizon “has licensed and authorized e-commerce merchants” to sell the goods. No licensee is named. |
| Disclosure of the assignments | None. The complaints never mention that the marks were acquired, from whom, or when. |
| Corporate identity in its own filings | The Case 1 amended complaint opens: “ALBION BRAND FOUNDRY LTD (‘Plaintiff’ or ‘ALBION BRAND’) … brings this Amended Complaint.” Albion Brand Foundry is a different Palmer Law Group client, a U.K. company. The Case 2 amended complaint describes Blue Horizon only as “a limited liability company formed in the US.” |
| Enforcement activity | Three suits in one day against 41 seller aliases, with a $500 million demand on one docket |
The Albion paragraph is almost certainly a template error, carried over from another client’s pleading. But it appears in a sworn-adjacent filing made specifically to satisfy a federal judge’s order. It also underlines how interchangeable these plaintiffs’ pleadings are. Defendants are entitled to ask who the real party in interest is.

| Goods the complaints claim beyond the registration | “Grills, trays, candle holder sets” (Case 2 complaint); “household cleaning tools, brushes, personal care products” (Case 1 complaint) | — |

| Reexamination window (non-use, § 1066b) | Until March 11, 2030 | Until July 20, 2026 (closed) |
| Expungement window (never used, § 1066a) | Opens March 11, 2028 | Open now (3 to 10 years after registration) |
Points to note:
- Neither registration is incontestable. Both remain open to cancellation on any ground that would have barred registration (15 U.S.C. § 1064), including non-use, fraud and likelihood of confusion with an earlier mark.
- The use claims are aggressive. BPPEG claims use on 13 different kinds of goods as of a single date, from dinnerware to pet brushes. AOMRCOL claims 20, from briefcases to trekking poles and pet garments, on another single date. A use-based registration requires actual use on every listed good when the application is filed. One specimen per class was enough to get through examination.
- AOMRCOL faces a use deadline right now. To keep the registration past July 20, 2027 (or the six-month grace period after it), Blue Horizon must file a sworn Section 8 declaration with specimens showing current use for each listed good. If it is not using the mark on goods it does not itself sell, that declaration will be difficult to make honestly. Any goods not in use must be deleted. AOMRCOL is also now eligible for an expungement petition for goods on which the mark was never used.
- The complaints reach beyond the registration. Grills, trays, candle holder sets, household cleaning tools and personal care products are not in BPPEG’s registration. The § 1114 claim, and any counterfeiting damages, extend only to goods covered by the registration.
Where the marks came from
BPPEG and Wu, Yufei
The BPPEG certificate shows Reg. No. 7,724,044 issued on March 11, 2025 to Wu, Yufei, an individual with an address in Nanshan District, Shenzhen. The application was filed July 28, 2024, about ten weeks after the claimed first use.
A third-party trademark directory lists 37 U.S. filings under the owner name “WU, TUFEI” (30 registered and 7 pending). Most date from 2024, and nearly all are short coined letter strings: YAINB, YICGD, YVYEM, YUERYO, YYDZM, YZMK, ZGRED, ZMOMZ, ZMQNW, WDDYU, WPKRM, WUAZM, XUSEN, WYCT, XOISO, HBMYN, BKDH, DNSL and BPPEG, among others. Coined, unpronounceable letter strings are a recognized feature of marks filed by Chinese e-commerce sellers and filing agents, because they clear quickly and are easy to register in bulk.
Two cautions:
- The address differs. The directory’s address for that owner is in Bao’an District, Shenzhen, not the Nanshan District address on the BPPEG certificate.
- The name is common. “Wu Yufei” is a common name. We have not confirmed from USPTO records that every filing in that list belongs to the same person.
What is clear: BPPEG is one of a large batch of similar coined marks filed in the same name in the same year. At least one has now been moved to a Wyoming LLC and asserted in two federal lawsuits.
AOMRCOL and Li, Yuanying
The AOMRCOL certificate shows Reg. No. 6,425,202 issued on July 20, 2021 to Li, Yuanying, an individual in Shenhe District, Shenyang. The application was filed October 24, 2020, about seven weeks after the claimed first use.
USPTO prosecution entries show:
- changes of attorney or domestic representative and of correspondence address in August 2021, a month after registration;
- an “automatic update of assignment of ownership” on March 4, 2026, after which Blue Horizon appears as owner;
- no Section 8 filing yet.
The original registrant’s other filings, if any, are not shown in the materials we reviewed.
The pattern, and its limits
Blue Horizon’s two marks follow the same path as CEDARFIRM’s (EXLEAF from Xie, Tianhua; LADYGYM from Jianjun Ma):
- an individual Chinese registrant files a use-based application shortly after a claimed first-use date, with a sweeping goods list;
- the registration issues and is later assigned to a Wyoming LLC at 30 N. Gould Street;
- months later, Palmer Law Group asserts it in Miami Schedule A suits.
The complaints do not disclose any of that history. Practitioners have described a market in which “numerous IP agents in China offer to sell US IP registrations at extremely low prices,” sometimes “US$200 or even less.” They describe it as making it “economically rational to acquire US IP rights … as a litigation weapon.”
Whether the registrants filed these marks intending them for sale and enforcement is something only discovery can prove. Buying a registration is lawful. But the history gives defendants concrete, documentable questions:
- Was goodwill transferred, or only the certificate? An assignment without the goodwill of a business (an assignment in gross) is invalid under 15 U.S.C. § 1060(a)(1).
- Was each mark in use on every listed good when the application was filed? If not, those goods are vulnerable. If the applicant knew the claim was false, the registration may be void for fraud (In re Bose Corp., 580 F.3d 1240 (Fed. Cir. 2009), which requires proof of intent to deceive).
- Who are the “licensed and authorized” merchants? A licensor that controls no product quality risks a finding of naked licensing and abandonment. A plaintiff with no products on the market will struggle to show the irreparable harm to its own goodwill that injunctive relief requires.
- Who shares in any recovery? Both original registrants, any licensees, and any litigation funder are proper subjects of discovery.
Judge Moore’s Omnibus Order
Judge Moore’s standing order, entered in each case on his own motion within two days of filing, is one of the most demanding Schedule A orders in the district. It denies any pending motions without prejudice and sets conditions for refiling within 14 days:
- Separate TRO and preliminary-injunction motions.
- Justify any asset freeze. A freeze is permitted only to preserve assets for equitable relief, citing Grupo Mexicano de Desarrollo S.A. v. Alliance Bond Fund, Inc., 527 U.S. 308, 333 (1999).
- Personal jurisdiction over EACH defendant. The motion must detail the steps taken to verify jurisdiction under Florida’s long-arm statute (§ 48.193(1)(a)(1), (2) and (6)) or Rule 4(k), citing Meier v. Sun Int’l Hotels, 288 F.3d 1264 (11th Cir. 2002).
- All four injunction factors as to EACH defendant, and, for ex parte relief, specific sworn facts and an attorney certification under Rule 65(b)(1).
- Alternative service only on evidence. The plaintiff must show its efforts to confirm each defendant’s address, each defendant’s domicile, and whether the proposed method is permitted under the Hague Convention given that domicile, citing Zuru (Singapore) Pte. v. Schedule A (S.D.N.Y. 2022).
- Joinder. Any motion for a TRO, injunction or alternative service must show that the claims arise “out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences” under Rule 20(a)(2)(A).
- A verified prior-suits report within 14 days. Counsel must search federal court records nationwide for earlier suits against the defendants over the plaintiff’s IP. For any settled suit, counsel must disclose the settlement terms, including attorney’s fees, and whether the defendant complied.
- No sealing or anonymity by default. Motions to seal or proceed pseudonymously are “disfavored.”
- Consequences. Noncompliant complaints must be amended, and failure to comply “will result in the dismissal of this case…without further notice” under Rule 41(b).
Judge Moore’s paperless pretrial order adds more requirements:
- a scheduling conference within 60 days of the complaint, absent an enlargement;
- a joint scheduling report 10 days after that, a deadline not tolled by amended complaints;
- no telephonic appearances “for any purpose”;
- notice of any settlement within 24 hours.
Discovery is referred to Magistrate Judge Yeney Hernandez under her published discovery procedures.
How Blue Horizon responded
On October 24, in Cases 1 and 2, Blue Horizon filed short responses and amended complaints.
The responses answer an order Judge Moore did not enter. Each says: “The Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why all Defendants other than the first-named Defendant on Schedule A should not be severed and dismissed.” That is the language of Judge Huck’s order in the companion CEDARFIRM case, not Judge Moore’s Omnibus Order. Judge Moore’s order contains no severance directive. The responses then:
- Concede the point. Blue Horizon “concedes that the Complaint, as filed, does not adequately establish a sufficient basis for joinder” of the 14 (Case 1) and 12 (Case 2) defendants.
- Drop all but one defendant per case. Case 1 keeps youna shop, the first-named defendant. Case 2 keeps pingping stor, which was defendant no. 4, not the first-named.
- Do not oppose dismissal without prejudice of the other 24 sellers.
In the filings we reviewed, the responses are not verified and do not report a prior-suits search. Judge Moore’s order expressly requires both, within 14 days. Blue Horizon still has until November 5 to file that report. For Case 3 (AOMRCOL, 15 defendants), no amended complaint or response appears in the record we reviewed. Its 14-day deadline runs on November 4.
The single-defendant amended complaints
The amended complaints in Cases 1 and 2 are five pages each and nearly identical:
- Defendants. Each names one seller, “believed to be” operating from Guangzhou (youna shop) or Yiwu, Zhejiang (pingping stor).
- Damages. Each still seeks statutory damages of up to $2,000,000 per counterfeit mark, plus an order requiring the marketplaces and payment processors to “disable Defendant’s accounts … and restrain funds held therein.”
- Allegations. They now allege “actual confusion” and dilution. No dilution count is pleaded, and no fact supporting actual confusion is identified.
- Product descriptions. They describe the accused products as “toothbrush holders” (Case 1) and “toilet tissue holders” (Case 2). The registration covers “toothbrush cases” and “toilet tissue holders.”
What the evidence exhibits show
Exhibit 2 to each amended complaint is a set of Amazon screenshots. Case 1 has 16 pages captured October 3 and 14, 2026. Case 2 has 13 pages captured September 6, 2026.
- The products are sold as “Generic.” The Case 2 listing, a resin sea-turtle toilet paper holder, shows “Brand: Generic.” Neither listing displays BPPEG as a brand name, on the product, or on packaging.
- “bppeg” appears only as a stray word in the bullet text. In Case 1, the description reads: “Holds multiple toothbrushes in bppeg separate slots,” and “making the bppeg brushing routine easier.” In Case 2: “The bppeg hand painted teal blue finish” and “The bppeg sturdy front flippers securely cradle standard and jumbo rolls.” The word is dropped, lowercase, into the middle of sentences where it serves no grammatical purpose.
That matters for liability. Trademark infringement requires use of the mark as a mark, to identify source, in a way likely to confuse buyers. A meaningless word buried in a description of a “Generic” product is a weak basis for a counterfeiting claim. The listings do not show who added the word or when. Amazon’s listing-edit history, obtainable in discovery, would.
- Checkout pages, not completed purchases. Each exhibit includes an Amazon checkout page with a delivery address in Miami. Judge Moore requires proof of personal jurisdiction as to each defendant, and these pages show the “Place your order” step, not an order confirmation or a delivered product. The Case 2 page shows the order total in Hong Kong dollars (“Order total: HKD 177.33”), meaning the buying account was set to pay in HKD. Defendants should ask whether any sale to Florida actually occurred, and who placed the order.
Same mark, two cases
Blue Horizon split its BPPEG claims into two lawsuits filed the same day before the same judge, against 14 and 12 sellers. It paid two filing fees but avoided putting 26 defendants in one case. Judge Moore’s order now limits both cases to a single defendant each. The 24 dismissed sellers could be sued again, but each new case would require a new filing fee, a new verified prior-suits report and a new showing of jurisdiction.
Known Schedule A defendants
These are all of the seller aliases Blue Horizon has publicly named. Being named is an allegation, not a finding: no court has found any of these sellers liable.

All nine Amazon IDs in Case 2 begin with a doubled “AA,” and several are 15 characters long. In CEDARFIRM’s LADYGYM case, the same firm’s complaint listed IDs with a doubled “AA” that its later notice corrected to a single “A.” The Case 2 IDs should be checked before any freeze order issues.

Totals: 41 seller aliases named across the three cases. After the October 24 amendments, 17 remain: 1 in Case 1, 1 in Case 2 and 15 in Case 3.
Overlap with the CEDARFIRM cases. Walmart seller weijing (store 103122942), Case 2 defendant no. 3, is the same store ID as the first-named defendant in CEDARFIRM’s original EXLEAF complaint before Judge Huck. That defendant was also dropped from that case on October 24. A seller named sunzhi (Case 3, no. 7) appears among the other sellers on the Walmart EXLEAF listing in CEDARFIRM’s evidence exhibit. The same small set of Walmart storefronts recurs across different Palmer plaintiffs asserting different Chinese-origin marks. That is relevant to the prior-suits reports Judge Moore and Judge Bloom require. It also supports a seller’s argument that it is being sued serially over unrelated marks.

Recommendations for sellers named in Blue Horizon’s cases
- Know where you stand. If you are youna shop, pingping stor or one of the 15 AOMRCOL defendants, you remain a defendant. If you were dropped from Case 1 or 2, you were dismissed without prejudice and could be sued again. Keep your records.
- Hold the plaintiff to Judge Moore’s order. No TRO, asset freeze or email service should issue without the defendant-by-defendant showings the Omnibus Order requires: jurisdiction, domicile, Hague Convention analysis, joinder and the four injunction factors. Point out any gap.
- Demand the real party in interest. The Albion Brand Foundry paragraph, the undisclosed assignments and the Wyoming registered-agent address all justify asking who owns and controls Blue Horizon, and who shares in any recovery.
- Attack the registrations. Request the assignment documents and proof of transferred goodwill. Pull the specimens from the USPTO file. Consider:
- a cancellation petition for non-use or fraud;
- for AOMRCOL, an expungement petition for goods never used.
Watch whether Blue Horizon files a truthful Section 8 declaration for AOMRCOL by July 2027.
- Use the evidence against itself. A “Generic” product with a stray lowercase word in its bullet points is not a counterfeit in any ordinary sense. Insist on proof that you used BPPEG as a brand, and on Amazon’s edit history for the listing.
- Challenge jurisdiction. An unfinished checkout page priced in Hong Kong dollars is not a sale into Florida.
- Limit any freeze. Under Grupo Mexicano, as Judge Moore’s order recognizes, restraint is available only to preserve equitable relief such as disgorgement of profits from the accused product, not an entire account balance.
Recommendations for brand owners
- Expect Judge Moore’s order on day one. Prepare jurisdiction, domicile and joinder evidence for each defendant before filing, along with a verified prior-suits search.
- If you acquired your mark, disclose it. Record the assignment, document the goodwill transferred and be ready to prove quality control over licensees. Silence about a recent assignment from a foreign individual invites the questions this post raises.
- Assert only the goods you are registered for, and only against sellers who use your mark as a brand.
- Proofread. The wrong plaintiff’s name in an amended complaint, a response to an order the judge did not enter, and malformed seller IDs all cost credibility at the moment you are asking for extraordinary ex parte relief.
What to watch
- Whether Blue Horizon files verified prior-suits reports by November 4 and 5, and what they disclose about weijing and other repeat defendants.
