Matt Murphy

You know, where did that take place?

Florida.

But I still think the most competitive legal environment is L.A.

Welcome back to In the Well, and for those of you who don't know, Matt not only will define In the Well for you, he also, and talk about spearing litigants, he also spears fish for a living on his off days.

And joining us right now is entertainment journalist, multimedia producer, Shasti Flaa.

Shasti has been covering...

What else?

The Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni legal saga closely and personally been involved in the case.

She was subpoenaed by Blake Lively back last year, was even set to testify against Blake for Justin's side.

Welcome, Shasti, to In the Well.

Shasti, I have a question for you, because I have said that you I assume you know what the Streisand effect is, where you end up starting a legal battle in order to vindicate your rights and you end up magnifying your own issues a hundredfold.

Blake Lively is now taking that to the next level on steroids.

Do you think subpoenaing you may have been one of the three dumbest things in this case?

I'll tell you one dumb thing that I think happened today.

I don't know if we have, you know, in the federal courts, you've probably seen it, Shastri, they have PACER, which is the fancy legal term for the docket sheet.

And so there's an entry today where Blake Lively's lawyers come in and as they always do, they always overshoot things.

what they should ask for.

They are almost constitutionally incapable of reading the room.

And they asked for more, and the judge ended up now basically bench-slapping them and telling them, now you're limited to 10 pages, single space, and I don't want to hear any more from you, where they didn't have a limitation to begin with.

They went overboard once again today, and Judge Lyman gave them what Judge Lyman does best is, you obviously don't know how to play in the sandbox.
