Executive Summary

The court granted a joint stipulation to extend the deadline for Wells Fargo to participate in private ADR (mediation) in the Morris securities class action from July 21, 2026 to November 19, 2026. This procedural extension is routine and does not change the merits or financial exposure of the case — the motion for class certification and expert exclusion remain pending. No ruling on the merits, damages, or liability occurred.
