15 On July 8, 2025, Whitepages, Inc. (“Whitepages”) timely filed a notice of appeal (Dkt.
16 #40) of the Court’s Order on Motion to Compel Arbitration (Dkt. #38). Because the appeal
17 addresses the denial of Whitepages’ motion to compel arbitration and Whitepages’ statutory rights
18 under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 16(a), the district court is “require[d]” to enter an
19 “automatic stay” pursuant to Coinbase, Inc. v. Bielski, 599 U.S. 736, 143 S.Ct. 1915, 216 L.Ed.2d
20 671 (2023). See also California by & through Harrison v. Express Scripts, Inc., 139 F.4th 763, 767
21 (9th Cir. 2025) (“[A] stay of lower court proceedings pending appeal is required when a district
22 court denies a motion to compel arbitration.” (citing Coinbase, 599 U.S. at 741)).
23 The parties have conferred and plaintiffs Jennifer Carrera, Carol Anderson, and Becky Jo
24 Palmer by and through their counsel of record do not oppose this motion.
