In this episode, we break down the dramatic courtroom showdown that has now closed its first chapter — a federal judge has handed a decisive legal victory to Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and Leslie Sloane in their high-profile battle against Justin Baldoni’s $400 million countersuit. Their motion to dismiss has been granted with prejudice.
We’ll walk you step-by-step through Judge Lewis Liman’s reasoning, focusing on the legal standards for claims like extortion and defamation, and we will explain exactly why Baldoni’s allegations failed to meet those requirements.
