💨 Abstract

Actress Blake Lively asked a U.S. judge to dismiss actor Justin Baldoni's $400 million defamation lawsuit, alleging it was a vengeful attempt to weaponize the courts after she accused him of sexual harassment. Lively claimed Baldoni's lawsuit was part of a "sinister campaign to bury and destroy" her. Lively is seeking unspecified triple and punitive damages for reputational and emotional harm.
