The order stops Baskin’s request to immediately block the second season’s release, but leave her open to seek further legal action.
Netflix’s release of Tiger King 2 will go ahead on November 17 after a judge denied Carole Baskin’s request for temporary restraining order, only hours after it was filed, according to Deadline. Baskin and her husband, Howard Baskin, filed a complaint in a Florida federal court on Monday, aiming to block the release of the forthcoming second season of the smash-hit documentary series. The suit targeted Netflix and Royal Goode Productions, arguing that the companies have no right to release leftover footage of the Baskins or their Big Cat Rescue company in the five new episodes. The couple argues that they were led to believe that the appearance releases they signed allowed the footage of them to be used for only one season. Upon its release last week, Baskin was found to be featured prominently in the trailer for Tiger King 2.
