 1          Pursuant to the Court’s Minute Entry dated September 19, 2023 (ECF No. 226) and L.R.

 2   16-10(d), Plaintiffs Cat Brooks and Rasheed Shabazz (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendant Thomson

 3   Reuters Corporation (collectively, the “Parties”) submit this Joint Status Report in advance of

 4   the Case Management Conference set for January 9, 2024 in the above-captioned action.

 5      1. STATUS UPDATE

 6          On September 19, 2023, the Court entered its Minute Order following the parties’

 7   status conference on the same date (ECF No. 226). The Court set a subsequent status

 8   conference for January 9, 2024, as the parties awaited a decision from the Ninth Circuit on

 9   Thomson Reuters’ Rule 23(f) petition (Id.). On October 26, 2023, the Court granted the parties’

10   stipulation setting forth an updated case schedule through trial (ECF No. 227). On November

11   17, 2023, the Ninth Circuit denied Thomson Reuters’ Rule 23(f) petition (ECF No. 228).

12          The Court’s minute entry (ECF No. 226) additionally required the parties to discuss

13   ADR before the January 9 status conference. The parties met and conferred on December 19,

14   agree that mediation is appropriate here, and are working to schedule a mediation by March

15   31, 2024.
