Blake Lively Seeks More Time in Legal Fee Dispute

Blake Lively has reportedly requested additional time from a federal judge concerning attorney fees she aims to collect from director Justin Baldoni. Her legal team sought an extension beyond the original June 22 deadline to compile arguments and billing records.

Lively's lawyers cited numerous conflicting personal and professional obligations, including international travel, as justification for needing at least a seven-day extension, potentially up to 30 days. The judge has yet to rule on this request.

Earlier this month, the court ordered Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios to cover some of Lively's legal fees incurred during the lawsuit. The precise amount Baldoni must pay is still being determined.

Baldoni's attorney, Bryan Freedman, stated his client's desire to move on from the dispute, emphasizing the need for peace and finality for all parties involved.
