Pursuant to the United States District Court, Northern District of California Civil Local 

Rules 7-12 and 16-8(c), Plaintiffs Ryan Richards, Ruba Ayoub, Brandy Terbay and Tracy 

Cummings (“Plaintiffs”), and Defendants Chime Financial, Inc., Galileo Financial Technologies, 

Inc., and The Bancorp Inc. (collectively, “Defendants”), by and through their respective counsel, 

stipulate and agree as follows: 

1. WHEREAS, Plaintiffs filed their initial Complaint on October 22, 2019, and 

Defendants have either been served or agreed to accept service; 

2. WHEREAS, the parties have been referred to Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler for a 

settlement conference pursuant to ADR Local Rule 7-2 in advance of the initial case management 

conference pursuant to Local Civil Rule 16-8(a), and such conference was scheduled for April 1, 

2020; 

3. WHEREAS, the matter was stayed until such settlement conference is complete; 

4. WHEREAS, on March 16, 2020, the Court gave notice to the parties that no inperson settlement conferences could be completed through at least April 17, 2020; 

5. WHEREAS, the parties have met and conferred and agree to take the April 1, 2020 

conference off-calendar in order to continue informal settlement negotiations until May 5, 2020, 

and therefore request that a final settlement conference be scheduled on such date or as soon 

thereafter as Judge Beeler is available (excluding May 6) to hold such a conference; 

6. WHEREAS, the parties now agree that more time is needed to complete the 

settlement conference referral and an extension of the stay currently in place is therefore justified 

under the circumstances; 

7. WHEREAS, in an effort to conserve both court and party resources during the 

ADR Local Rule 7-2 referral, the parties agree: (a) to request to extend the stay of the deadline on 

Defendants’ time to answer or respond to Plaintiffs’ Complaint through May 5, 2020 pending 

completion of the ADR Local Rule 7-2 referral; (b) to request to further continue the case 

management conference until a date after May 5, 2020; and (c) to request that the matter 

otherwise be further stayed in its entirety through May 5, 2020 pending completion of the ADR

Local Rule 7-2 referral and shall continue thereafter if the Court is not available on May 5th for a 

conference until such time as the Court is available; 

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, 

through their respective counsel, that: 

(a) The stay in this matter shall be lifted for the sole purpose of entering this stipulated 

Order; 

(b) Defendants’ deadline to answer or respond to Plaintiffs’ Complaint shall be stayed 

through May 5, 2020 pending completion of the ADR Local Rule 7-2 referral and 

shall continue to be stayed thereafter if Judge Beeler is not available for an ADR 

Local Rule 7-2 conference until such time as she has completed the ADR Local Rule 

7-2 referral; 

(c) the case management conference shall be continued until a date after May 5, 2020 to 

be set by the Court by separate order; and 

(d) the matter shall otherwise be stayed in its entirety through May 5, 2020 and shall 

continue to be stayed thereafter until Judge Beeler completes the ADR Local Rule 7-2 

referral.
