Blake Lively has withdrawn the claims related to the imposition of emotional anguish against Justin Baldoni.
In his new legal documents, Lively requested on Tuesday to withdraw and dismiss his claims of intentional inflicence of emotional anguish and negligent inflicence of emotional anguish.
The measure is produced in response to a letter presented by the Baldoni Charter, Kevin Fritz, requesting Judge Lewis J. Liman in the United States District Court in the South District of New York for “an order that forces Blake Lively to identify his suppliers of medical and mental health care.”
The order would force Liver to sign a hipaa release to access relevant therapy and medical information notes.
Animated refuses “to reveal the information and documents necessary to refute that she suffered some emotional anguish” and seeks to “maintain the right to present it again. [infliction of emotional distress claims] At an unknown moment in this or some other court after the discovery window has closed, “reads its presentation.
“Mrs. Lively cannot have it both ways,” said his legal team in the document.
Lively, Esra Hudson and Mike Gottlieb’s lawyers also addressed the recent movement in a statement.
“Once again, this is a routine part of the litigation process that is being used as a press trick. We are doing what the litigating lawyers do: prepare our case for the trial when rationalizing and focusing it; they are doing what they do: desperately looking for another round of coverage of the tabloids,” lawyers told People magazine.
The actress “continues to claim emotional anguish, as part of numerous other statements in her demand, such as sexual harassment and reprisals, and additional massive damage in all her statements.”
Both cases in Lively v. Wayfarer Studios et al. They are scheduled for the trial in March 2026.
Baldoni faces accusations of sexual harassment, “non -professional” behavior on the set and the launch of a reprisal detachment campaign. Meanwhile, Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds and her advertising team are being hired by Baldoni by defamation and extortion.
