A federal judge denied a request to depose Taylor Swift in a lawsuit between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. The judge ruled that Baldoni's team hadn't demonstrated sufficient diligence in scheduling the deposition, despite claiming Swift's album release prevented earlier questioning. Lively was granted a 10-day extension for depositions in the ongoing sexual harassment and retaliation case. While Baldoni's team sought to involve Swift, the judge's decision sides with Lively, at least temporarily, leaving Swift's involvement uncertain.
