Trial Court Opinion

2 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON MALINA BROWN, for herself, as a private Case No. 2:25-cv-02329 attorney general, and/or on behalf of all others similarly situated, STIPULATED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME 6 Plaintiff, TO RESPOND TO CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT; ORDER 7 v. TORRID, LLC, 9 Defendant.

11 Pursuant to Western District of Washington Local Rules 7 and 10, Plaintiff Malina Brown, for herself, as a private attorney general, and/or on behalf of all others similarly situated (“Plaintiff”) and Defendant Torrid, LLC (“Defendant”), together (the “Parties”), by and through their respective counsel, hereby stipulate that Defendant’s deadline to answer or otherwise respond to the Complaint in the above- captioned action is extended for a total of fifty four (54) days from November 26, 2025 to and including January 19, 2026.

17 A court may modify a deadline for good cause. Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b). Indeed, modifying or extending a responsive deadline is within the discretion of the trial judge. See Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 609 (9th Cir. 1992).

20 Good cause exists to extend Defendant’s deadline to respond to the Complaint because additional time will allow Defendant to properly evaluate Plaintiff’s allegations and prepare an appropriate response. The Parties submit this request in good faith and not for the purpose of delay. Accordingly, the Parties request that this Court extend Defendant’s deadline to respond to Plaintiffs’ Complaint such that Defendant’s response shall be due January 19, 2026.

25 The Parties further stipulate and request that should Defendant file a Motion to Dismiss in response to the Complaint, the Court enter the following briefing schedule: 1 a. Plaintiff’s Opposition to the Motion shall be due March 2, 2026; and 2 b. Defendant’s Reply shall be due March 23, 2026.
