Baldoni drops Taylor Swift summons in Blake Lively Battle

Justin Baldoni dropped his summons for Taylor Swift's text messages to Blake Lively after a judge rejected the request after the Lively team had applied for objections.

Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman claimed in a letter dated May 14, Lively friend had blackmailed her superstar girlfriend in order to put her side in the ongoing legal sentence of counterclaims with her “It ends with us” foodstar and director.

The summon quoted an anonymous source that threatened Lively to publish “private text messages of personal nature” if Swift did not delete their messages that reported in a bad light. Lively has accused Baldoni of sexual harassment, while the actor countered the actress and her husband Ryan Reynolds and the New York Times for defamation.

A LIVELY spokesman said to Theewrap on Thursday: “We are pleased that Justin Baldoni and the Wayfarer parties have withdrawn their harassing underloads to Taylor Swift and their law firm. We supported Taylor's team's efforts to control these inappropriate lectures.”

The statement continued: “The Baldoni and the Wayfarer team tried, Taylor Swift, a woman who has been an inspiration for ten million around the world since the first day. Distresses from the actual demands for sexual harassment and retaliation with which they are exposed.”

Freedman did not answer the request from Thewrap for comment.

The judge in the case, Lewis Liman, wrote in his judgment of May 15: “The letter is inappropriate and must be deleted. It is irrelevant for every problem before this court and does not apply for measures from this court … The only purpose of the letter is to promote public scandal by promoting public scandal and progressing” in order to promote the inflammatory accusation, against information and faith, against Evel and faith, against evel Lawyers to advance.

The lawyer of Swift, Mike Gettleib, immediately referred to the allegations of blackmail as “categorically wrong” and added: “We clearly deny all of these so -called allegations that cowardly refer to supposed anonymous sources and have been completely decided from reality.” He submitted an application to strike the associated letters from the court's court, which was granted.

The spokesman for LIVELY also pointed out a section in Appendix D in Lively's changed complaint against Baldoni: “In this part, our team can also examine the planting of stories about the weapons of feminism and the way people in BLS Kreis like Taylor Swift were accused of using these tactics to” Bully “what they want what they want.”

In February, the Times asked for a dismissal of the 250 dollar defamation, in which the IT failed, as the newspaper shows the “alleged actual malice” of the newspaper.
