Justin Baldoni has asked the judge to throw out Blake Lively’s lawsuit against him.

The former co-stars have been locked in a bitter feud since she sued him last December, accusing him of sexual harassment and waging a smear campaign against her. Claims he has denied.

The latest development is that Baldoni’s legal team is asking the judge to grant a summary judgment, which would dismiss the case.

Host Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty and resident trial attorney Shaun Kent examine Baldoni’s arguments in more detail.
