The ongoing legal battle between It Ends with Us’ Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni took a major turn this past week due to a ruling from a federal judge. Ahead of the actors’ trial, Judge Lewis J. Liman – of the Southern District of New York – dismissed the vast majority of the claims Lively against Baldoni. Among the claims that were cleared were defamation, conspiracy and harassment. Lively’s legal team initially responded to the ruling but, now, another one of her lawyers is weighing in, specifically responding to Baldoni’s attorney.
