A judge ruled in favor of Blake Lively this week in her legal battle against Justin Baldoni, granting a modified protective order to limit the disclosure of sensitive information to the public. Judge Lewis Liman approved Lively’s request to protect certain details that could cause business, commercial, financial, or privacy harm. The protection applies to information such as security measures, medical information, and personal details about third parties. The judge cited the need to prevent gossip and innuendo from interfering with legal proceedings.
Lively and Baldoni have been embroiled in a legal dispute, with Lively accusing Baldoni and his production company of sexual harassment and launching a smear campaign against her. In response, Baldoni filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, alleging that false information was spread to the media. The case stems from their collaboration on the film “It Ends With Us,” where Lively starred and produced, and Baldoni directed and starred.
Lively’s representatives expressed satisfaction with the judge’s decision, as it will protect the individuals involved in the case. The ruling allows Lively to proceed with the discovery process to gather evidence supporting her claims in court. The legal battle between Lively and Baldoni continues to unfold, with both parties alleging misconduct and seeking legal recourse through the courts.
