Justin Baldoni’s lawyer hopes that the lawsuit between his client and Blake Lively is “finally over” and that the “It Ends With Us” co-stars are able to move on with their lives.
On Monday’s episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the host spoke with Bryan Freedman – Baldoni’s lawyer through the nearly two-year long dispute – about everything finally coming to a conclusion. He also explained why he was publishing the full settlement with Lively in hopes things would not be able to be resurrected in the future.
“The other parties in the case won’t be able to resurrect the ruling that she’s entitled to her attorney’s fees, the parties wanted finality, and there’s no form in which she can then take this based on the settlement agreement and say I want to redo any of these provisions like punitive damages, like treble damages, like compensatory damages,” Freedman said. “The only issue left is for Judge Liman to rule on what’s the amount of the attorney’s fees under 47.1 pursuant to the limited cause of action of the defamation claim.”
