Recently, Blake Lively\u2019s lawyers asked a judge to make Justin Baldoni, his company Wayfarer Studios, and others hand over detailed financial records. This move comes amid a massive $400 million lawsuit filed against the actress.<\/p>\n
According to TMZ, Lively\u2019s legal team sent a letter to the judge last Friday, asking for these documents because they had tried to get them before but hit a wall.<\/p>\n
Blake\u2019s team said they had even met with Justin Baldoni\u2019s lawyers and requested the financial papers they needed. However, Baldoni\u2019s side only agreed to share \u201cnon-privileged documents\u201d about their damages, refusing to provide the specific records Blake\u2019s team was after.<\/p>\n
To recap, Justin Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios filed a $400 million lawsuit against Blake Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and The New York Times. This came after Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and trying to smear his reputation.<\/p>\n
Blake\u2019s lawyers argue that the $400 million damage claim is based on supposed harm to the reputation and income of those suing her. So now, Baldoni and his team have to prove their numbers with actual evidence.<\/p>\n
Also, Blake\u2019s team pointed out that It Ends With Us<\/em> (a big hit movie) was hugely successful, despite Baldoni\u2019s side saying they lost money. They say these loss claims are vague and not backed up with clear details.<\/p>\n This back-and-forth is the latest chapter in a high-profile legal battle that\u2019s got Hollywood watching closely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently, Blake Lively\u2019s lawyers asked a judge to make Justin Baldoni, his company Wayfarer Studios, and others hand over detailed\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":74014,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[458],"class_list":["post-74013","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-blake-lively"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74013","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74013"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74013\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74014"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74013"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74013"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74013"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
