Justin Baldoni $400 million Blake Lively countersuit is officially dead after deadline lapse
Justin Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds has been formally dismissed by a federal judge, after the actor skipped his opportunity to appeal.
Justin Baldoni has literally allowed this case to die. He had lost part of the case in June, but the judge allowed his team to refile it, apparently pointing at some weight to his claims that Lively actively interfered with their contract agreement as he claimed she tried to steal the film altogether. Unfortunately, Blake Lively seems serious about seeing this to its bìter end. She has already filed for charges and court fees, and losing this case could ruin Baldoni financially and end his career as well.
After reading both claims, I believe Baldoni and his studios may have a case to answer for making Lively uncomfortable on the set of It Ends With Us, although Lively has taken it too far by painting Baldoni as the face of sexual harrassment in the film industry. Can't wait to see how it all ends though.
