The latest developments come a week after the lawyers of Lively Baldoni’s telephone and internet records had summoned in an attempt to expose “people, tactics and methods” behind an alleged smear campaign. The legal team of Baldoni is now urging the American district judge Lewis J. Liman to destroy the summons “as quickly as possible”.
Earlier this month, Liman warned both parties to stop the process of their case in the media, with which he warned that he can increase the process that has currently been established for March 2026.
On February 1, Baldoni launched a new website with a changed complaint and a timeline of alleged SMS messages between him and Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
In December Lively submitted a complaint about sexual harassment and Baldoni and others accused a smear campaign after she had worried about Baldoni’s alleged behavior.
Baldoni denied the claims and invented the New York Times for defamation after it reported about the allegations of Lively. Later in January he submitted a lawsuit of $ 400 million against Lively, Reynolds and their publicists, claiming that defamation and extortion. That same month Lively started a federal lawsuit against Baldoni, who repeated her claims of intimidation and retribution.
