from Ask 2 Lawyers · host Albertson & Davidson, LLP

Another twist in the Blake Lively v. Justin Baldoni defamation lawsuit—and this one’s big. Advocacy groups are now backing Lively by filing amicus briefs in support of her motion to dismiss, citing California’s new Civil Code Section 47.1 (the so-called "Me Too Law").   In this episode, we’re breaking down:   - What an amicus brief actually is - Why advocacy groups are getting involved now - What this support could mean for both sides and their legal strategy - And how it might shape the court’s view of 47.1 going forward We’re real lawyers reacting in real time—join us, bring your questions, and let’s get into it. — Learn more about our law firm: https://www.aldavlaw.com  Follow us on social media: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@aldavlaw  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aldavlaw  Twitter: https://twitter.com/aldavlaw  Want to support the channel?
