[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Popculturechat is claiming this:

"Baldoni/Lively Judge rules that Justin Baldoni's lawsuit against Blake Lively was "legally frivolous and factually baseless" and sanctions Baldoni's lawyers"

Is that true?[/quote]

Partially, yes. It's the opposite side of the coin from those claiming Baldoni won everything. This reads like a nicely worded statement from Lively's team.

Some of the claims in Baldoni's lawsuits were ruled legally frivolous and factually baseless, but it was mostly contract-type claims asserted against the wrong parties. The headline makes it sound like it's referring to his entire lawsuit, but it was only some claims.

Baldoni's lawyers were sanctioned for that, in the form of a reprimand, which is serious for an attorney, but the judge did not award the money damages Lively wanted.

A fair headline would be more like "Baldoni/Lively Judge rules portions of Justin Baldoni's lawsuit against Blake Lively were "legally frivolous and factually baseless" and reprimands Baldoni's lawyers, but avoids the most serious sanctions."[/quote]
