[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve been told for over a year that Baldoni’s lawyers were bozos and Blake’s geniuses, and yet Blake’s lawyers equally unable to plead actionable claims.[/quote]

Wayfarer bringing in a competent attorney like Alexandra Shapiro made the difference. [/quote]

I questioned the wisdom of them challenging the merits of the sexual harassment claims on summary judgment, generally that's a sure loser because whether the acts reasonably constitute sexual harassment is a question of fact for the jury.  But they weren't trying to win on that basis, they were exposing the weakness of the sexual harassment claims so the judge would be comfortable dismissing them on questions of law.  And it worked as the judge made pretty clear at the hearing that he viewed the allegations generally as disputes about how to handle filming of intimate scenes better addressed through contract law than actual sexual harassment.  So yes, if she came up with that strategy, job very well done.
