The bagel they save for the regulars. Don't skim, savour.
Summary
A judge ruled that Blake Lively is entitled to recover legal fees and costs from Justin Baldoni following their legal dispute related to the making of the film "It Ends With Us" and the reputational fallout in summer 2024. Judge Lewis Liman issued a 47-page order granting Lively's motion for fees and costs but not yet damages. This comes after an eleventh-hour settlement in May between the co-stars, which avoided what was expected to be a messy trial.
