Part 2/5:
The judge's ruling indicates that the couple's initial filing has been “granted in part and denied in part.” The modified protective order will encompass both Lively and Baldoni as they navigate through the complexities of this litigation. Importantly, the ruling assigns the highest level of confidentiality—termed attorney's eyes only—to specific categories of information. This level of protection is typically reserved for sensitive material in legal contexts, ensuring a rigorous shield against public exposure.
According to the court's adjustments, categories listed as attorney’s eyes only include trade secrets and confidential business plans, as well as other strategies that are seemingly unrelated to the legal dispute intertwined with Wayfair Studios and other associated parties.
