In a significant ruling, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman has denied Justin Baldoni’s recent attempt to depose pop superstar Taylor Swift in the ongoing legal battle involving actress Blake Lively. The case centers around Lively’s claims of sexual harassment and retaliation during the filming of the movie It Ends With Us.

The court’s decision, issued on Friday, highlighted Baldoni and his co-defendants at Wayfarer Studios’ failure to act in a timely manner. The judge noted that they had waited too long to request the deposition, which ultimately led to the denial of their last-minute bid. While Lively was granted a 10-day extension to depose Baldoni and two other individuals, the judge found that Baldoni and Wayfarer did not demonstrate sufficient justification for needing a similar extension for Swift’s deposition.
