Taylor Swift will only sit for Lively-Baldoni deposition if 'forced' by court

After Justin Baldoni's attorney said that Taylor Swift would sit for a deposition in the simmering legal battle between him and his It Ends With Us co-star Blake Lively, the pop star has fired back.

Swift's lawyer asserted on Friday that she has "no material role" in the case and did not agree to be deposed, contradicting what Baldoni's team claimed.

Baldoni's attorney said on Thursday that she requested an agreement to take Swift's deposition in late October due to the singer's "preexisting professional obligations".

Lively's attorney wants the judge to deny the deadline extension and accused Baldoni of seeking to bring Swift into litigation "to generate a media spectacle in this matter".
