Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP and Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann LLP Confirm that Investors of First Republic Bank Have Until June 23, 2023 to Move for Appointment as Lead Plaintiff

The law firms of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP (“Kessler Topaz”) (www.ktmc.com) and Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann LLP (“BLB&G”) (www.blbglaw.com) inform investors that City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Retirement System v. First Republic Bank, No. 23-cv-01993 (N.D. Cal.) (the “City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Action”) was voluntarily dismissed on June 16, 2023. The City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Action was a securities fraud class action lawsuit filed on behalf of First Republic Bank (“First Republic”) (NYSE: FRC) investors who purchased or otherwise acquired First Republic securities between January 14, 2021, and March 14, 2023.

The voluntary dismissal of the City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Action, however, does not change the June 23, 2023, lead plaintiff deadline, as any such motions should be made in a later-filed action.

Specifically, on June 14, 2023, another securities fraud class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and captioned Kusen v. Herbert, II, et al., No. 23-cv-02940 (N.D. Cal.) (the “Kusen Action”). The Kusen Action expanded the class period pled in the City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Action to include investors who purchased or otherwise acquired First Republic securities between January 14, 2021, and April 27, 2023, and reaffirmed the June 23, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline in a press release dated June 14, 2023 announcing the filing of the Kusen Action. Thus, no later than June 23, 2023, any First Republic investors may seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff in the Kusen Action.
