Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds to request dismissal of $400 million defamation lawsuit filed by Justin Baldoni
Fox News
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds indicated to a federal judge they plan to request dismissal of Justin Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit against them.
The move comes after Judge Lewis Liman ordered the parties must "indicate in one sentence the Defendant’s intent to make a motion to dismiss." The federal judge will now set a deadline for Lively and Reynolds' legal team to file the motion to dismiss. "[Bryan Freedman's] conduct threatens to, and will, materially prejudice both the Lively Case and the Wayfarer Case by tainting the jury pool, because his statements are deliberately aimed at undermining the ‘character, credibility, [and] reputation’ of numerous relevant parties."
Lively and Baldoni's case will head to court Monday, as the actress' legal team is prepared to discuss a potential gag order. Lively's team slammed Baldoni's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, for making multiple statements to the media that could ultimately taint the jury should the actress' sexual harassment complaints against Baldoni make it to a courtroom.
