A summary of events:
Baldoni’s lawyers claimed Taylor Swift had agreed to be deposed. Swift’s lawyers denied these claims, saying she never agreed but if she were forced, that she would be available for it the week of Oct 20th.
Ultimately, the judge denied Baldoni’s legal team to depose Swift.
“Discovery has been ongoing in this case for approximately six months,” the judge wrote. “They have offered no evidence that they have served a renewed subpoena on Swift… Having failed to demonstrate appropriate diligence, the requested extension is denied.”
A source told ET, “Taylor [Swift] wants nothing to do with Blake and Justin’s legal battle.”
