I'm just going to put it out there.
00:04
This case is never going to trial.
00:08
This case will never see a courtroom.
00:11
This case was never filed to be tried.
00:14
It was filed for PR on both sides.
00:17
Oh, I think clearly this is totally generated by PR reasons on both sides.
00:25
And I will tell you why.
00:26
The first thing was, they did not file a lawsuit.
00:30
People have to understand that this was a claim.
00:34
This was the precursor, precondition to filing a lawsuit.
00:38
This was a way to take that, file that, use that to get the interest of the New York Times,
00:48
the catnip for them to take the bait.
00:51
You are going to depose Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Taylor Swift, who else?
00:57
I don't know that we're going to depose Taylor Swift or not.
01:03
I think that that's going to be probably a game time decision.
01:06
I don't know that that decision has been made, but I can tell you this, anyone that reasonably
01:14
has information that can provide evidence in this case is going to be deposed.
01:22
That's Taylor Swift.
01:23
She was there for that meeting.
01:25
She was there for that meeting.
01:27
Okay.
01:28
Well, I'm a lawyer.
01:29
I know what that means.
01:31
And that's why I'm just thinking that even when you take Blake and Ryan out of it in
01:39
terms of how they personally feel about it all, I mean, to say that we're going to put
01:44
Taylor Swift in the middle of this whole thing, I think they are going to do everything they
01:49
can to avoid going to court because the last thing they want is to have their friend, the
01:57
biggest star in the world now, sitting on a stand being grilled by Brian Friedman.
02:03
My assumption is that they're going to probably take some legal actions that are beyond the
02:13
bounds of decency and we'll see if they can try to avoid a deposition.
02:18
How could they do that?
02:19
If there's relevance.
02:20
We're going to object and order the witness not to testify.
02:25
You're not his lawyer.
02:26
You're his friend.
02:27
Jeez.
02:28
Mark, Mark is usually my lawyer though.
02:32
I'm working here, guys.
