Blake Lively wins big amid lawsuit against Justin Baldoni
Blake Lively's legal fight against Justin Baldoni gets game-changing update
Blake Lively's legal fight against her It Ends with Us costar Justin Baldoni just got a game-changing update.
For the unversed, Lively was named in a defamation lawsuit filed against her by a digital strategist linked to Baldoni, back in February.
Now, as reported by Daily Mail, the lawsuit that named the 38-year-old actress, has been dismissed by the court.
A representative for the Another Simple Favor actress, in this regard, told TMZ that the latest development clears the path for her and her legal team to present a strong case when it arrives in court next spring.
"With this decision, all of the retaliatory lawsuits filed against Blake Lively by Justin Baldoni, Wayfarer Studios and their crisis communications and digital teams have been dismissed," said Lively's team.
According to the Gossip Girl alum’s representative, Lively will have her day in court on her claims at the March trial in New York, hinting at the upcoming trial set for next year.
The latest development comes a week after the wife of Ryan Reynolds’s claims were thrown out by a judge in which the actress alleged that public relations firm Street Relations Inc. and its owner, Jed Wallace. was a collaborator in the efforts to damage her reputation through social media due to lack of personal jurisdiction, meaning Texas wasn't the proper venue.
For the unversed, Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni have been embroiled in a legal battle since the release of their film It Ends with Us.
