TMZ recently reported that the legal teams for both “It Ends With Us” stars have been working on a range of questions. These questions are scheduled to be asked to the jury members to form an unbiased group for trial proceedings in May.

Justin Baldoni’s legal representatives are requesting an extension
Justin Baldoni’s legal team also requested an extension from the court. They all noted that they needed more time to review and verify Lively’s witness lists and exhibits due to their sheer length. Their filing also stated that “Lively’s dockets are currently impractical for pretrial and trial purposes, obscure witnesses and exhibits that the Wayfarer parties will actually have to confront, and create reams of unnecessary work at a time when the parties should be focusing their efforts toward trial.”
“They claimed that much of the content provided by the “Green Lantern” actress and her legal team had nothing to do with the case. The list of submitted items includes an article about Taylor Swift’s cookie recipe and photos, as well as an article mentioning Reynolds, his commitment to his family, and his relationship with Lively. The official trial date has been set for next month, May 18.See more: Veteran singer Asha Bhosle dies at 92
