Overview
- Lewis J. Liman dismissed claims against Texas-based social media operator Jed Wallace for lack of personal jurisdiction, without prejudice to refiling in a court that has authority, pointing to Texas.
- Lively’s spokesperson said the Wallace ruling concerns venue only and does not affect her New York case against Baldoni, Wayfarer executives, and PR staff slated for trial in March 2026.
- Final judgment entered on Oct. 31 closed Baldoni’s $400 million countersuit after no amended complaint was filed; his lawyer says the choice not to amend was to preserve appeal rights.
- Previously sealed filings unsealed this week list more than 100 potential witnesses, including Taylor Swift, Emily Blunt, Gigi Hadid, Hugh Jackman and the Haim sisters, a broad disclosure that does not mean they will testify.
- Lively’s latest discovery motions accuse Baldoni’s side of using auto-deleting apps, Signal and voice memos to conceal evidence, allegations the defense rejects.
