INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND\n 4\n           On October 31, 2025, Lead Plaintiff filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal,\n 5\n 6 pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i), \u201cdismiss[ing] the above-\n 7 captioned action in its entirety, against all Defendants, with prejudice and without\n 8\n   costs.\u201d ECF No. 67. In that Notice, Lead Plaintiff explained that \u201cthere is another\n 9\n10 virtually identical class action filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of\n11 Connecticut, as the principal defendant Compass Diversified is headquartered in\n12\n   Connecticut,\u201d and that, given the progress in that litigation, the parties agreed that this\n13\n14 case should be litigated in Connecticut. Id. Because Defendants had not yet filed either\n15 an answer or motion for summary judgment, Lead Plaintiff\u2019s Notice constituted the\n16\n   dismissal of the above-captioned action, FED. R. CIV. P. 41(a)(1)(A). Since then, a\n17\n18 schedule has been put in place in the operative action in the District of Connecticut, and\n19 Lead Plaintiff has been diligently working on an amended complaint to be filed there.\n20\n         On December 2, Lead Plaintiff became aware that it had inadvertently filed the\n21\n22 Notice as a dismissal with prejudice, despite the parties\u2019 intention that the dismissal be\n23\n     without prejudice, given the ongoing litigation in Connecticut. A dismissal with\n24\n     prejudice is a final adjudication on the merits for res judicata purposes that could\n25\n26 potentially bar the parties from continuing this action in the District of Connecticut. See\n27\n     Robi v. Five Platters, Inc., 838 F.2d 318, 321-22 (9th Cir. 1988) (explaining that federal\n28\n                                                 3\n     LEAD PLAINTIFF\u2019S NOTICE OF MOTION AND UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR RULE 60(B) RELIEF\n     Case No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES\n\fCase 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES         Document 68        Filed 12/04/25   Page 4 of 9 Page ID\n                                        #:1075\n\n\n 1 courts apply federal res judicata principles to the judgments of other federal courts). As\n 2\n   Lead Plaintiff is both eligible for and entitled to relief under Rule 60(b), Lead Plaintiff\n 3\n 4 respectfully moves this Court for relief from the Notice seeking an order either: (1)\n 5 declaring that the above-captioned action is dismissed without prejudice; or (2)\n 6\n   allowing Lead Plaintiff to file a corrected notice of voluntary dismissal without\n 7\n 8 prejudice.\n 9 II.     ARGUMENT\n10\n           A.     Lead Plaintiff Is Eligible for Rule 60(b) Relief.\n11\n12         Rule 60(b) permits a court, \u201c[o]n motion and just terms,\u201d to \u201crelieve a party . . .\n13 from a final judgment, order, or proceeding.\u201d As a dismissal with prejudice is a final\n14\n   judgment, order, or proceeding, Rule 60(b) is the proper vehicle for relief under the\n15\n16 present circumstances. See Stewart v.

Lead Plaintiff Is Entitled to Rule 60(b) Relief.\n 7\n 8       Having established that Lead Plaintiff is procedurally eligible for Rule 60(b)\n 9 relief, Lead Plaintiff turns to the substance of Rule 60(b), under which Lead Plaintiff is\n10\n   entitled to relief.\n11\n12         Rule 60(b) provides relief for six enumerated reasons. See FED. R. CIV. P.\n13 60(b)(1)-(6). Relevant here is the first of these reasons: \u201cmistake, inadvertence, surprise,\n14\n   or excusable neglect[.]\u201d FED. R. CIV. P. 60(b)(1). As explained above, Lead Plaintiff\n15\n16 sought to dismiss this California action because \u201cfrom a standpoint of judicial economy\n17 and convenience, it would be more efficient to have this case litigated in Connecticut\u201d\n18\n   as the principal defendant Compass Diversified is headquartered in Connecticut and\n19\n20 that action had been progressing. ECF No. 67. Thus, the filing of the Notice itself\n21 demonstrates the parties\u2019 intent to continue litigating this action in a different forum,\n22\n   and Lead Plaintiff made a drafting error in dismissing with prejudice instead of without\n23\n24 prejudice.\n25\n           Lead Plaintiff seeks to correct this excusable mistake as otherwise, the Notice\n26\n     could operate as a \u201cfinal judgment on the merits\u201d that bars \u201call grounds for recovery\n27\n28 which could have been asserted, whether they were or not, in a prior suit between the\n                                                 5\n     LEAD PLAINTIFF\u2019S NOTICE OF MOTION AND UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR RULE 60(B) RELIEF\n     Case No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES\n\fCase 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES        Document 68       Filed 12/04/25   Page 6 of 9 Page ID\n                                       #:1077\n\n\n 1 same parties . . . on the same cause of action[.]\u201d Ross v. Int\u2019l Bhd. of Elec. Workers, 634\n 2\n   F.2d 453, 457 (9th Cir.1980). Correcting as much poses no prejudice to Defendants,\n 3\n 4 who do not oppose this Motion and who agreed to continue to litigate these claims in\n 5 Connecticut. Unlike in other instances in which the Ninth Circuit has denied Rule\n 6\n   60(b)(1) relief, this is not an attempt to \u201cremedy the effects of a deliberate and\n 7\n 8 independent litigation decision that a party later comes to regret through second\n 9 thoughts[.]\u201d See Latshaw v. Trainer Wortham & Co., 452 F.3d 1097, 1099 (9th Cir.\n10\n   2006). Because Lead Plaintiff\u2019s scrivener\u2019s error is a legitimate mistake, Lead Plaintiff\n11\n12 is entitled to Rule 60(b) relief.\n13 III.    CONCLUSION\n14\n           Lead Plaintiff is both eligible for and entitled to Rule 60(b) relief to correct the\n15\n16 dismissal of the above-captioned action such that it is dismissed without prejudice. Lead\n17 Plaintiff therefore respectfully requests that this Court enter an order either: (1)\n18\n   declaring that the above-captioned action is dismissed without prejudice; or (2)\n19\n20 allowing Lead Plaintiff to file a corrected notice of voluntary dismissal without\n21 prejudice.\n22\n23\n24\n25\n26\n27\n28\n                                                6\n     LEAD PLAINTIFF\u2019S NOTICE OF MOTION AND UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR RULE 60(B) RELIEF\n     Case No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES\n\fCase 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES       Document 68       Filed 12/04/25   Page 7 of 9 Page ID\n                                      #:1078\n\n\n 1\n     Dated: December 4, 2025                  Respectfully submitted,\n 2\n 3                                            COHEN MILSTEIN SELLERS\n 4                                            & TOLL PLLC\n 5                                            By: /s/ Christina D.

See, e.g. ECF 14, 20, 24, 28, 31, 39.\n\nI. CONSOLIDATION\n\nThe Court has reviewed the related cases\u2014Matthews et al. v. Compass Group Diversified\nHoldings, LLC, et al., 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES; Augenbaum et al. v. Compass Diversified\nHoldings, et al., 8:25-cv-01003-MRA-KES; and Tan et al. v. Compass Diversified Holdings, et\nal., 2:25-cv-05777-MRA-KES\u2014and agrees they are appropriate for consolidation under Federal\nRule of Civil Procedure 42(a).\n\n\u201cIf actions before the court involve a common question of law or fact, the court may:\n(1) join for hearing or trial any or all matters at issue in the actions; (2) consolidate the actions; or\n(3) issue any other orders to avoid unnecessary cost or delay.\u201d Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(a). \u201cDistrict\ncourts enjoy substantial discretion in deciding whether and to what extent to consolidate cases.\u201d\nHall v. Hall, 584 U.S. 59, 77 (2018). \u201cTo determine whether to consolidate, a court weighs the\ninterest of judicial convenience against the potential for delay, confusion and prejudice caused by\nconsolidation.\u201d Knox v.

Compass Group Diversified Holdings, LLC, et al.\n\nAugenbaum et al. v. Compass Diversified Holdings, et al.\nTan et al. v. Compass Diversified Holdings, et al.\n\nHere, common questions of law and fact predominate: all plaintiffs are shareholders of\nCompass Group Diversified Holdings LLC (\u201cCompass\u201d) and are alleging that Defendants failed\nto disclose important information about Compass\u2019s financial situation in violation of the Private\nSecurities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (\u201cPSLRA\u201d). That the actions have already been\ndesignated as related cases underscores the commonality between these actions. Moreover, as\nexplained above, multiple individual Plaintiffs have already moved to consolidate, and\nDefendants have not opposed these motions. Thus, it appears clear to all involved (including this\nCourt) that common questions of fact and law predominate.\n\nAccordingly, the Motion to Consolidate the related actions is GRANTED. The Court\nconsolidates these cases into one \u201cConsolidated Action\u201d and ORDERS as follows:\n\n1) Every pleading in the Consolidated Action shall have the following caption:\n\nIn re: Compass Securities Litigation Case No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES\n\nHon. Monica Ramirez Almadani\n\nThis Document Relates To:\n\n2) The file in 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES shall constitute the master file for every action in the\nConsolidated Action. The Clerk shall administratively close the other actions. When the\ndocument being filed pertains to all actions, the phrase \u201cAll Actions\u201d shall appear\nimmediately after the phrase \u201cThis Document Relates To:\u201d. When a pleading applies to\nsome, but not all, of the actions, the document shall list, immediately after the phrase \u201cThis\nDocument Relates To:\u201d, the docket number for each individual action to which the\ndocument applies and the last name of the first-listed plaintiff in said action.\n\n3) All actions subsequently filed in, or transferred to, this District shall be consolidated into\nthe Consolidated Action only if the Court determines that they are in fact related. It shall\nbe the responsibility of the parties in those actions to promptly file a Notice of Related\nCases pursuant to Local Rule 83-1.3.1.\n\n4) A party\u2019s appearance in the consolidated case shall apply to all constituent cases.\n\nCV-90 (06/04) CIVIL MINUTES - GENERAL Page 2 of 4\n\fCase 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES Document 63 _ Filed 08/22/25 Page 3of4 Page ID\n#:1051\n\nUNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT\nCENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA\n\nCIVIL MINUTES \u2014 GENERAL\n\nCase No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES Date\n8:25-cv-01003-MRA-KES\n\n2:25-cv-05777-MRA-KES August 22, 2025\nMatthews et al. v. Compass Group Diversified Holdings, LLC, et al.\n\nTitle\nAugenbaum et al. v. Compass Diversified Holdings, et al.\n\nTan et al. v. Compass Diversified Holdings, et al.\n\n5) This Order is entered without prejudice to the rights of any party to apply for severance of\nany claim or action with good cause shown.\n\nIl. APPOINTMENT OF LEAD PLAINTIFF AND COUNSEL\n\nUnder the PSLRA, any member of the purported class may move to serve as lead plaintiff.\n15 U.S.C.A. \u00a7 77z-1(a)(3)(A)@(D. In general, there is a rebuttable presumption that the \u201cmost\nadequate plaintiff\u2019 in a PSLRA class action is the person or group of persons that \u201c(aa) has either\nfiled the complaint or made a motion in response to a notice [of a PSLRA class action]; (bb) in\ndetermination of the court, has the largest financial interest in relief sought by the class; and (cc)\notherwise satisfies the requirements of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.\u201d 15\nU.S.C.A. \u00a7 77z-1(a)(3)(B)Gi)(D.\n\nHere, multiple Plaintiffs have filed complaints and posted notice regarding the actions\nbefore the Court. Similarly, multiple Plaintiffs have met the requirements of Rule 23. See Fed.\nR. Civ. P. 23 (explaining the requirements for class action certification, as well as the procedural\nprocess for conducting class action lawsuits). Therefore, the second factor\u2014the plaintiff with\nthe largest financial interest\u2014is the most relevant factor for the Court\u2019s consideration. Having\nreviewed the docket and considered each Plaintiff's motion to be appointed lead plaintiff, the\nCourt finds that Eastern Atlantic States Carpenters Benefit Funds (\u201cEAS Carpenters\u201d),\nwhich is reporting $2,012,118.4 in losses, has the largest financial interest at stake in the action.\nSee ECF 39, 40, 41. Accordingly, the Court is prepared to appoint EAS Carpenters as lead\nplaintiff.\n\nThe PSLRA provides that the \u201cmost adequate plaintiff shall, subject to the approval of the\ncourt, select and retain counsel to represent the class.\u201d 15 U.S.C.A. \u00a7 77z-1(a)(3)(B)(v). In its\nMotion, EAS Carpenters requests the appointment of Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll PLLC\n(\u201cCohen Milstein\u201d) as Lead Counsel and Girard Sharp LLP (\u201cGirard Sharp\u201d) as Liaison\nCounsel for the proposed class. ECF 40 at 7. Rule 23(g) provides that a court must determine\nthat an applicant for class counsel is qualified to represent the proposed class by considering\nfactors such as: \u201c(i) the work counsel has done in identifying or investigating potential claims in\nthe action; (11) counsel\u2019s experience in handling class actions, other complex litigation, and the\ntypes of claims asserted in the action; (i111) counsel\u2019s knowledge of the applicable law; and (iv) the\nresources that counsel will commit to representing the class.\u201d Fed.

P. 23(g)(1)(A).\n\nCV-90 (06/04) CIVIL MINUTES - GENERAL Page 3 of 4\n\fCase 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES Document 63 _ Filed 08/22/25 Page4of4 Page ID\n#:1052\n\nUNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT\nCENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA\n\nCIVIL MINUTES \u2014 GENERAL\n\nCase No. 8:25-cv-00981-MRA-KES Date\n8:25-cv-01003-MRA-KES\n2:25-cv-05777-MRA-KES August 22, 2025\n\nMatthews et al. v.

D (providing a firm resume for Cohen Milstein).\n\nFinding no reason to withhold approval of EAS Carpenters and EAS Carpenters\u2019 selected\ncounsel, the Court intends to appoint: 1) EAS Carpenters as Lead Plaintiff; 2) Cohen Milstein as\nLead Counsel; and 3) Girard Sharp as Liaison Counsel. Any party wishing to dispute these\nselections is ordered to show cause as to why the appointments should not move forward by\nproviding a concise yet detailed explanation as to why an alternate appointment would be more\nappropriate.
