A New York judge allowed Justin Baldoni’s lawyers to obtain messages between Blake Lively and Taylor Swift during the discovery process, ruling that they were “relevant” to the filmmaker’s legal battle with the actor.
Lively had filed a motion last week to prevent Baldoni from getting her text messages and other communications with the pop superstar, arguing that his legal team’s “continued focus on Ms Swift is a media strategy, not a litigation strategy” that was intended purely to generate headlines rather than deepen their understanding of the case.
