Blake Lively Says Her Fight Isn’t Over After Justin Baldoni Lawsuit Gets Narrowed
Summary
Blake Lively responded to a court ruling that dismissed 10 of 13 claims in her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni by stating her fight is not over. While a sexual harassment claim was dismissed due to her classification as an independent contractor, claims of retaliation and breach of contract remain and are scheduled for trial on May 18th. The judge’s decision focused on legal structure rather than declaring no wrongdoing occurred, leaving room for underlying allegations to be examined.
Lively’s team argues that she faced retaliation after raising concerns about working conditions, and the court allowed those retaliation-related claims to proceed. Both sides are now appealing to both the court and public opinion, with Baldoni’s side viewing the dismissal as a vindication and Lively’s side as a technical setback.
The case has expanded beyond a simple on-set dispute, becoming a public discussion about power dynamics, workplace boundaries, and the interpretation of legal outcomes. Despite the dismissal of significant portions of her original complaint, Lively’s remaining allegations are substantial enough to keep the case active and in the headlines, demonstrating her continued commitment to pursuing the matter.
