Amicus Briefs in Lively v. Baldoni: Advocacy Groups Back 47.1 Defense

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
