Justin Baldoni's legal team accused Blake Lively of trying to force Taylor Swift to issue a public message of support.

U.S. district judge Lewis J. Liman granted Lively 's request to have the accusation removed from the case.

The judge said the letter was of "no use" to the court and only served as a "reservoir of libelous statements for press consumption".
