NY Times Sued & Lawsuit Trilogy. Alec Baldwin Sues Prosecutors. Jay-Z’s Lawyer Getting Spicy.

Alec Baldwin is suing Kari Morrissey and others involved in the Rust case. The lawsuit stems from Baldwin claiming he was wrongly prosecuted for the accidental shooting death of Helena Hutchins on the set of Rust. The case was dismissed due to prosecutorial misconduct. Baldwin is suing for violation of his civil rights, conspiracy, malicious abuse of process, defamation and other causes of action. Attorney Alex Spiro represents both Baldwin and Jay-Z. The judge in the Jay-Z case has had enough of his antics, who has asked him to tone down his inflammatory language, ad hominem attacks and filing copious amounts of litigation to seemingly drown the other side. The "It Ends With Us" lawsuits are a trilogy of litigation. The lawsuits are centered around allegations of harassment, retaliation, and breach of contract. Stephanie Jones and her company, Jonesworks, are suing Justin Baldoni, Wayfarer, Jennifer Abel, Melissa Nathan, and up to 10 John Does for secretly coordinating a media smear campaign against Baldoni's film co-star, Blake Lively, and then used the crisis as an opportunity to drive a wedge between Jones and Baldoni, and to publicly pin blame for this smear campaign on Jones - when Jones had no knowledge or involvement in it. Justin Baldoni sued The New York Times for an article published on December 21st, 2024 covering a complaint filed by Blake Lively with the California Civil Rights Department. He alleges the Times failed to properly investigate these claims before publishing its article and it is defamatory, constitutes false light, invasion of privacy, promissory fraud, and breach of implied-in-fact contract. Blake Lively filed a lawsuit against Justin Baldoni, Jamey Heath, Wayfarer, Jennifer Abel, Melissa Nathan in New York alleging the same things filed in the California Complaint. We’re not sure why this wasn’t filed in California but think this has to be a strategic advantage.  RESOURCES NM v Alec Baldwin Trial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gLvDml0N_vUJ4wINrMLKHHS  Kari Morrissey Asks Judge to Reconsider Dismissal with Prejudice - https://www.youtube.com/live/ORPpIBhrpOY  Jay-Z Named in Diddy Lawsuit - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxSCZvUOQyw  Live Breakdown of the “It Ends With Us” Trilogy - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NY6L7h2Asdc  Blake Lively’s Complaint - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0yfwMzSLaU This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
