Who is involved: Intuit Inc., the law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP, and investors who purchased INTU shares during the defined class period.
Likely next: Investors must file lead‑plaintiff motions by September 8, 2026; the court will then rule on appointments, after which the case may advance to discovery, settlement talks, or trial.
