Justin Baldoni claims Blake Lively is using her 'celebrity status' to get an edge at deposition


Justin Baldoni is pushing back against Blake Lively's request to be deposed in her lawyer's office ahead of their upcoming sexual assault trial.

Baldoni's side wrote in the filing, 'Although Lively’s foot-stomping and use of her celebrity status may have enabled her to seize control of the film, which is the crux of this dispute, her counsel’s tantrum has no place in this Court.
