Michael Gotlib, a lawyer, who lively alive in a lawsuit of her civilian sexual harassment and vengeance against Baldony, told CNN that the actress has intended to continue her trial against Baldony.
In a conversation with Jake Taper on Monday, Gotlib said that Lively “is firm to look forward to her claims and whatever happened to her for a complete public accountability.”
Her statement came on the same day, a judge dismissed Baldoni’s $ 400 million trial with Livali and her husband Ryan Reynolds as well as her pracharak. He also dismissed a separate claim against Baldoni against New York Times, who had earlier reported liveli allegations.
Gotlib said that the power couple feels “vandalized” by the ruling, as well as “grateful to individuals and organizations who are standing by Ms. Liveli because she is chasing these claims.”
“I think there is a message today that such an anti -subscribed lawsuits that are actually designed for silence and those who speak will not punish them.” And I think it is an important message for those who want to speak against misconduct that they can face their workplaces. ”
Baldoni’s lawyer, Brian Freedman on Tuesday responded with a statement to CNN.
“The declaration of the forecast of the victory of Ms. Liveli and her team is false, so we should be clear about the latest decision,” he said.
“The court has invited us to amend four of the seven claims against Ms. Liveli, which will demonstrate additional evidence and sophisticated allegations. The case is about sexual harassment and retaliation allegations and false allegations of a non -dhabbb campaign,” the statement continued. “With the facts from our side, we proceed with the same confidence that we had when Ms. Livali and her colleagues started the fight and are ready to his upcoming statement that I will take.

In December 2024, Livali filed a civil rights complaint, claiming that she was sexually harassed by Baldoni during the film’s production and then retaliated to speak about her alleged misconduct.
He quickly denied his claims, suit against him and Rrenalds in January 2025, alleging that the superstar couple demanded him and his career to “destroy” after kidnapping his film, “It ends with us.”
Baldoni also filed a case against The New York Times, which was first reported on allegations of sexual harassment of Lively, alleging that the newspaper published an article “prevailing with impurities, wrong bayani and omissions”, which depended on the “self-service tale” of Jeevant.
All were given on Monday to dismiss Liveli, Rrenalds, Slone and New York Times.
A New York Times spokesperson said on Monday, “We are grateful to the court to see the case what it was: stopping honest reporting is a qualification attempt.” “Our journalists went out and covered the story of public importance carefully and to a large extent, and the court admitted that the law has been designed to protect the kind of journalism. We will stand for our journalism and for our journalists when their work comes under the attack.”
In his judgment on Monday, the judge said that the Baldony could file a revised complaint on allegations of torture intervention with the contract, related to the raranolds and vibrant, and violated the covenant contained by lively till 23 June.
Gotlib admitted that the judge’s decision allowed to file a revised complaint for Baldony, which he said to “assistant or party claims”, but he said that the main defamation allegations have “gone from the case.”
