They also praised California laws designed to protect people from retaliatory lawsuits and online smear campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Baldoni\u2019s attorney fired back hard, insisting the ruling was only limited to legal fees and claiming there was \u201cno sexual harassment, retaliation or smear campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bitter legal fight started back in late 2024 after Lively sued Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment. Baldoni denied all allegations and later launched a massive countersuit against Blake, Ryan Reynolds and their publicist \u2014 but that case was ultimately dismissed.<\/p>\n<p>Even crazier? Reports claim BOTH sides spent a staggering $60 MILLION combined during the brutal 18-month courtroom battle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blake Lively has officially won a major ruling in her explosive legal war with Justin Baldoni.
