Justin Baldoni is responding to a major development in his ongoing legal dispute with Blake Lively after a federal judge dismissed a significant portion of her claims.
On April 2, Judge Lewis J. Liman of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York issued a ruling on Baldoni's motion to partially dismiss the case connected to the film It Ends with Us. The judge dismissed 10 of the 13 claims brought by Lively, narrowing the scope of the lawsuit as it moves forward.
Following the decision, Baldoni's legal team expressed approval of the outcome. In a statement shared with PEOPLE, attorneys Alexandra Shapiro and Jonathan Bach said they were pleased that the court had dismissed all sexual harassment claims, as well as claims against several individual defendants named in the suit. They emphasized that the court carefully reviewed the evidence, along with the legal arguments presented by both sides.
