Blake Lively Wins Settlement in Baldoni Battle as 47.1 Defamation Law Looms
Deadline reports a settlement in the Blake Lively–Justin Baldoni fight over It Ends With Us. Lively does not release her 47.1 claims, the 47.1 Motion remains pending, and the parties waive appeals; no cash was paid to Lively and judge approval is still required. Civil Code 47.1 could bring penalties for Baldoni and Wayfarer defendants, while related cases (including Abel v. Jones) continue and a May 18 trial date remains on the calendar.
