Blake Lively's attorneys claim that...
According to The Wrap, Blake Lively has filed a 30-page notion at the New York’s Southern Distrcit Court, where the lawyers claim that Justin Baldoni’s attorneys have “no reasonable basis in law and clearly were brought for an improper purpose,” adding that the claims were quite obvious to harass the media narratives against Ms. Lively. “These public attacks, combined with the Rule 11 Plaintiffs filing numerous claims against Ms. Lively without any basis in law or fact, is willfully improper and warrants sanctions,” the motion stated.
Blake Lively demands investigation documents
Additionally, in the second motion, Blake Lively is demanding the documents about the investigation by the Wayfarer Studios regarding her claims of sexual harassment that she previously filed in 2023. The letter submitted to the judge read that the studios failed to submit the documents that were legally required. “Had it done so, Ms. Lively would have participated in such an investigation, and it would have substantiated the sexual harassment she suffered while on the set of the film ‘It Ends With Us’ (the “Film”), which included (among other things) Mr.
Baldoni’s unsolicited discussions about his addiction to pornography and sex life, and his improvised intimacy scenes without Ms.
Lively’s consent,” the letter read.
“If her complaints were promptly investigated, as the law requires, she may also have been spared the retaliatory smear campaign by Wayfarer and its Co-Defendants,” it continued before adding, “Instead, Wayfarer waited years, until late January 2025, to initiate this Investigation. By that time, Wayfarer had already forcefully publicly denied Ms. Lively’s allegations and sued her and several others for $400 million for making the very same allegations that are now the subject of this ‘neutral’ investigation.
