Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-12, Defendant Plaid Inc. (“Defendant”) and Plaintiffs Caroline 
Anderson, James Cottle, Rachel Curtis, David Evans, Logan Mitchell, Alexis Mullen, Jordan Sacks, 
Frederick Schoeneman, Gabriel Sotelo, Jeffrey Umali, Nicholas Yeomelakis, on behalf of themselves

No. 57); 
WHEREAS, Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint (“CAC”), asserting ten (10)

WHEREAS, Civil Local Rule 7-2(b) sets a 25-page limit for a memorandum in support of a 
motion to dismiss;
