Blake Lively Trying to Escape Through Medical Records? Actress' Team Reacts to Justin Baldoni's New Claims
Justin Baldoni's attorneys are called out by Blake Lively's lawyers over the claims that the actress is trying to hide her medical records. Amid the ongoing legal battle between the It Ends With Us co-stars, the filmmaker's lawyers went on to state that the movie star tried to withdraw her lawsuit against Baldoni due to 'intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent infliction of emotional distress.'
According to new media reports, it was stated that Justin 's attorneys attempted to get the actress to sign a HIPAA document, which would grant officials access to the mother of four's therapy notes and other medical records.
The lawyers needed the documents to retrieve evidence against her in defense of the actor-director, and claimed that to stop them from doing so, the Green Lantern actress tried to withdraw her case.
In the new progress, Lively's lawyers fired back at Baldoni's attorneys, claiming their statements to be 'misleading.'
Blake Lively's lawyer's letter to the judge
In response to Justin Baldoni 's team's claims, the actress' lawyers penned a letter to the judge seeking to fight against the new filing.
The documents read, 'As the Wayfarer Parties make abundantly clear in their Motion, Ms. Lively voluntarily agreed to withdraw her infliction of emotional distress claims on Friday, May 30. Ms. Lively did so in good faith to streamline the dispute in the ordinary litigation process, given the damages she otherwise anticipates recovering.'
They further added, 'Counsel for the Wayfarer Parties concede and are aware that this renders their discovery moot. Motion at 3. But they also have been desperately searching for an angle to make a show out of Ms. Lively's decision to streamline her case.'
The lawsuit by Blake Lively was first filed in December, six months after the release of their movie It Ends With Us. Justin Baldoni went on to file a countercase against the actress and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, on the grounds of extortion and defamation.

Blake Lively Faces Dead End in Justin Baldoni Feud: Judge Rules Out Emotional Distress Claims, Find Out Details
Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's case has escalated over the months, and the progress seems to be in favor of the filmmaker. According to the new reports, the judge overseeing the case between the co-stars has declared the actress's emotional distress claims to be dead. The ruling was shared by Judge Lewis Liman after back-and-forth filings by both parties. According to the previously published reports, Lively's attorneys got back at Baldoni 's lawyers, who claimed that the mother of four tried to withdraw her lawsuit to hide her medical records. The actress's team stated, 'As the Wayfarer Parties make abundantly clear in their Motion, Ms. Lively voluntarily agreed to withdraw her infliction of emotional distress claims on Friday, May 30. Ms. Lively did so in good faith to streamline the dispute in the ordinary litigation process, given the damages she otherwise anticipates recovering.' Judge Lewis Liman's ruling As for the new ruling in the Lively vs. Baldoni case, the judge mentioned that the actress is at a dead end in changing her mind over disclosing her medical records. In the motion penned by the judge this morning, Liman stated, 'Lively's request that 'because the parties have agreed to dismiss Ms. Lively's tenth and eleventh causes of action… the Court exercise its inherent authority and authority under Rule 15 to dismiss them without prejudice' is denied without prejudice to renewal.' He further added that either Lively reaches an agreement with Baldoni over the filing with prejudice or has the court dismiss them without prejudice. Whichever way her team chooses, she can no longer present any evidence of her emotional distress. The case between the It Ends With Us co-stars has been going on since December, months after the movie was released.
