Baldoni Wins Big: Sexual Harassment Claims Dismissed!
2 Apr
Summary
- Judge dismissed all sexual harassment claims against Justin Baldoni.
- Blake Lively's claims were unenforceable due to unsigned agreements.
- Three claims remain; trial is set for May 18 in New York City.
In a significant development for the "It Ends With Us" legal battle, Justin Baldoni has secured a major victory. Judge Lewis Liman dismissed all sexual harassment claims brought forth by Blake Lively against Baldoni ahead of the scheduled trial.
The judge's decision stemmed from the fact that Lively did not sign the Actor Loanout Agreement, which would have governed sexual harassment on set. Consequently, the contracts were deemed unenforceable for these specific claims.
Despite this dismissal, Lively still has three remaining claims to argue: breach of contract, retaliation, and aiding and abetting in retaliation. The trial is confirmed to proceed on May 18 in New York City.
