Blake Lively has spoken out after a court ruling significantly narrowed her legal case against Justin Baldoni tied to It Ends With Us.
Based on reports, a judge dismissed 10 of Lively’s 13 claims, including allegations of sexual harassment and fat shaming, leaving only breach of contract, retaliation, and aiding and supporting retaliation to proceed to trial.
As per Daily Mail, responding to the decision, her attorney stated, “This case has always been and will remain focused on the devastating retaliation...reputation because she stood up for safety on the set and that is the case that is going to trial.”
“For Blake Lively, the greatest measure of justice is that the people and the playbook behind these coordinated digital attacks have been exposed and are already being held accountable by other women they've targeted,” the statement continued.
“She looks forward to testifying at trial and continuing to shine a light on this vicious form of online retaliation so that it becomes easier to detect and fight.”
The statement concluded, “Sexual harassment isn't going forward not because the defendants did nothing wrong but because the court determined Blake Lively was an independent contractor, not an employee.”
Meanwhile, Baldoni’s legal team welcomed the ruling, saying, “We're very pleased the Court dismissed all sexual harassment claims and every claim brought against the individual defendants.”
