Overview

  • Justin Baldoni’s team subpoenaed Taylor Swift in May 2025 alleging she had information relevant to his countersuit against Blake Lively.
  • Swift’s team and her father, Scott Swift, voluntarily provided the requested information, prompting the legal team to drop the subpoena on May 22.
  • Sources say Swift feels an immense sense of relief since the subpoena’s withdrawal, but she has not resumed communication with Lively.
  • Lively’s December 2024 lawsuit accuses Baldoni of sexual harassment, while Baldoni countered in January with a $400 million suit alleging defamation and extortion.
  • The legal battle between Lively and Baldoni is ongoing, with both sides preparing for a trial scheduled for March 2026.
