Singer Taylor Swift might be deposed in the sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit filed by Blake Lively against Justin Baldoni. While Swift's lawyer maintains she has no significant role in the case, Lively's lawyer objects to the late scheduling of Swift's deposition, fearing it could jeopardize a March trial date. The lawsuit stems from Lively's allegations of sexual harassment against Baldoni on the set of "It Ends With Us." Baldoni countersued, accusing Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds of defamation and extortion, but this countersuit was dismissed. The dispute centers around the scheduling of Swift's deposition, with Baldoni's lawyers stating Swift's availability is limited to October 20-25 due to prior commitments. Lively's lawsuit accuses Baldoni and his production company of a smear campaign against her after she and Reynolds confronted him about his behavior. The film, "It Ends With Us," despite the controversy, exceeded box office expectations.
