Justin Baldonis lawyer blasts Blake Livelys…
Justin Baldoni’s lawyer has slammed Blake Lively’s current grin-filled outings as a “false victory tour” after his $400 million lawsuit alleging extortion and defamation against her was scrapped.
Bryan Freedman, representing the “It Ends With Us” director, had some selection phrases for the “Gossip Girl” alum after she celebrated her legal win by attending the Chanel Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner in NYC Monday night time.

“As a matter of fact, it’s just the opposite,” he stated, including that “what we wanted our win is to show there was no smear campaign, and there’s no sexual harassment.”
“Look at the facts, look at what’s been shown, look at the receipts, look at the video,” he went on, including that he had hoped Lively didn’t “drop her lawsuit … because she’s on a false victory tour, and she’s afraid of the truth.”
“The truth is, you know, going to be shown through depositions, which is what’s going to be next, I’ve noticed her deposition — it’s set in June — we’re going to see if she’s going to appear at that deposition or not,” Freedman instructed the outlet.
“And we’re gonna proceed forward with the case, and we’re gonna show that there was no sexual harassment, and we’re gonna show that there was no smear campaign.”
The Post has reached out to Lively’s reps for remark.

Elsewhere, Freedman slammed the “Age of Adaline” actress’ “predictable declaration of victory.”
“Ms. Lively and her team’s predictable declaration of victory is false, so let us be clear about the latest ruling,” he instructed Page Six Tuesday.
“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,” he continued.
“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.”
In addition to dismissing Baldoni and Wayfarer’s $400 million countersuit against Lively, the decide also dropped Baldoni’s $250 million defamation lawsuit against the New York Times.

Though Judge Liman granted Lively’s movement, he gave Baldoni a probability to amend and refile his claims against Lively and Reynolds, which have to be completed by June 23.
Lively’s legal professionals, Esra Hudson & Mike Gottlieb, celebrated Monday’s legal win, calling it a “complete vindication” for the actress.
