Blake Lively made a surprising legal decision in his current dispute with Justin Baldoni. The actress seeks to withdraw her intentional and negligent infliction claims of emotional distress against her co-star and director “this ends with us”.

This decision comes after the Baldoni legal team asked for access to medical and mental health files of Lively to support its allegations of distress.

While the Lively team describes withdrawal as a procedural step, Baldoni lawyers argue that it is an attempt to avoid disclosing sensitive information.

On Monday, June 2, court documents revealed that Lively had asked to withdraw the allegations that Baldoni caused his emotional distress while turning “he ends with us”.

The decision to delete complaints took place after the Baldoni team asked Lively to sign a liberation form to access its mental and medical health files.

The actor’s team noted that medical records were important for the allegations of Lively.

“Instead of complying with medical DPS, Ms. Lively’s lawyer recently advised us in writing that Ms. Lively will withdraw her [infliction of emotional distress] complaints, ”wrote the Baldoni team in the court documents addressed to judge Lewis J. Liman in the American district court Southern District of New York by Page six.

They noted that the lack of conformity of Lively meant that she wanted to maintain the right to restart her claims of emotional distress on a later date after the closure of the discovery window.

In response to the file, 37 -year -old lawyers, Esra Hudson and Mike Gottlieb, told the Daily mail That the withdrawal of complaints was a procedural step to focus on more substantial allegations.

“Once again, this is a current part of the dispute process which is used as a press cascade. We do what the lawyers for the test do: prepare our case for the trial by rationalizing and concentrating it; they do what they do: in desperately looking for another tabloid-tired round,” they shared.

Hudson and Gottlieb also told the publication that Blake Lively “always has” emotional distress, as part of many other complaints in his trial, such as sexual harassment and reprisals, and massive compensatory damage to all his claims. »»

The legal fight of Baldoni and Lively began in December 2024 when the “Gossip Girl” filed a complaint for sexual harassment against the 41 -year -old man, alleging a fault and a campaign of defamation of reprisals after having spoke.

In the file, the mother of four said that Baldoni’s behavior during and after filming had affected him emotionally.

According to Lively, the emotional impact was so extreme that it also affected her family, including her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and their children.

Among many allegations, the Hollywood icon said that Baldoni had entered his trailer for non-invited make-up while she would go, spoke of a previous pornography dependence, alluded to non-consensual sexual meetings and asked to disclose the details of his own “intimate life”.

Baldoni firmly denied the allegations of sexual harassment made by Blake Lively, calling them “false, malicious and defamatory”.

The filmmaker responded to her trial by depositing a counter-compliance of $ 400 million for defamation and extortion.

In his file, Baldoni accused Lively and her husband of having launched a coordinated campaign to destroy his reputation and his career.

He said Lively’s charges were not only baseless, but were also used as a lever to take control of the story and the results of the film.

Baldoni also allegedly allegedly allegedly refused to comply with certain requests, the couple retaliated by distributing damaging lies both in private and in public.

His legal team insisted that the counter-combination was intended to hold Lively and Reynolds responsible for their “smear campaign”, and he argued that he had always confirmed a professional environment in set.
