Justin Baldoni's Lawyer Slams Blake Lively's Gag Order Ask, Trial Date Set
Justin Baldoni’s lawyer Bryan Freedman issued a fiery response to Lively’s claims that he is trying to taint the jury pool in their upcoming trial, set for March 9, 2026
“Justin Baldoni and his lawyer may hope that this latest stunt will get ahead of the damaging evidence against him, but the video itself is damning,” Lively’s legal team said in a statement to Us on January 21, adding: “This matter is in active litigation in federal court. Us Weekly then confirmed on January 22 that Lively, 37, and Reynolds, 48, had filed a letter in court the previous day, seeking a protective order to stop Freedman from engaging in “improper conduct” such as an alleged “harassing and retaliatory media campaign” against the pair.
