Taylor Swift's Involvement in Legal Dispute Denied Extension Request by Judge
Taylor Swift has avoided another legal hurdle as a judge denied actor-director Justin Baldoni's request to extend the deposition deadline in his legal dispute with Blake Lively. Baldoni's team sought more time to depose Swift, citing her upcoming album release as a scheduling conflict. However, the judge ruled in Lively's favor, granting her lawyers' extension request and rejecting Baldoni's plea for an extension centered around Swift's availability. The case involves allegations of sexual harassment and defamation between Lively and Baldoni, with Swift being subpoenaed in the process. The trial is set for March 9, 2026.
