Plaintiffs, 
 
 
 
v. 
 
PRESTAMOS CDFI, LLC, 
 
 
 
 
Defendant. 
 
 
 
Civil Action No. 5:21-cv-04337-JMG 
 
 
 
 
 
 
PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR ACCOUNTING 
 
Plaintiffs hereby move to compel defendant Prestamos CDFI, LLC (“Defendant” or 
“Prestamos”) to produce an accounting, and in support thereof state as follows: 
1. 
Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint details facts reflecting that Defendant secured 
cash advances from the federal government in large amounts based on misrepresentations 
regarding the loans that secured those advances. See ECF 18, ¶¶ 71, 88-89, 108, 117, 126, 131, 
140, 149, 158, 167, 176, 179, 188, 197, 203 (a) – (g), 204 (a) – (ww).Those allegations are based 
largely on facts in the public record.  
2. 
Plaintiffs and members of the proposed classes are the intended recipients of these 
funds, and thus have a vested interest in those proceeds and are faced with substantial uncertainty 
regarding their status or potential disposition of the funds among other things.

3. 
Defendant is required to maintain records and account for these cash advances by 
virtue of its status as a lender and its lending commitments pursuant to the Small Business 
Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”).  
4. 
For all of these reasons, which are further detailed in the accompanying 
Memorandum of Law which is being filed and is incorporated herewith, the Court should compel 
Defendant to produce an accounting that accounts for and answers the following questions: 
a. 
How many of the 494,415 SBA-approved PPP borrowers that Defendant 
committed to fund did Defendant fail to fund?  
 
b. 
How much in federally-originated Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity 
Facility (“PPPLF”) and other cash advances did Defendant receive that it 
failed to fund to SBA-approved borrowers? 
 
c. 
Where are those unfunded proceeds presently?  
 
d. 
If Defendant paid any such PPPLF and other cash advances to others, 
when and to whom and how much and why?  
 
e. 
How much in PPP loan processing fees did Defendant obtain on the 
unfunded loans of Plaintiffs and the members of the proposed classes?
