Justin Baldoni's attorney calls Blake Lively's victory claims 'false' after court dismisses lawsuit

Justin Baldoni's attorney calls Blake Lively's victory claim false after countersuit dismissal, stating they will amend claims and continue their legal battle

Christina Dugan Ramirez is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital. 

"Ms. Lively and her team’s predictable declaration of victory is false, so let us be clear about the latest ruling," Freedman said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital. "While the Court dismissed the defamation related claims, the Court has invited us to amend four out of the seven claims against Ms. Lively, which will showcase additional evidence and refined allegations. This case is about false accusations of sexual harassment and retaliation and a nonexistent smear campaign, which Ms. Lively’s own team conveniently describes as ‘untraceable’ because they cannot prove what never happened."

"Most importantly, Ms. Lively’s own claims are no truer today than they were yesterday, and with the facts on our side, we march forward with the same confidence that we had when Ms. Lively and her cohorts initiated this battle and look forward to her forthcoming deposition, which I will be taking. We are grateful for the organic show of support from the public and for the dedication of the Internet sleuth community who continue to cover the case with discernment and integrity."
