Sept. 12 Taylor Swift has agreed to sit for a deposition in the legal battle between actress Blake Lively and actor and producer Justin Baldoni, according to court documents.
Swift has agreed to the request from Baldoni’s legal team but is not available until Oct. 20, which falls beyond the Sept. 30 deadline imposed by U.S. District Court Judge Lewis J. Liman.
Lawyers for Baldoni have asked for an extension from Oct. 20 to Oct. 25 to depose Swift, who will be unavailable because of «pre-existing professional obligations.»
The 35-year-old pop icon is releasing her 12th album The Life of Showgirl on Oct. 3 and is «unable to do so [attend a deposition]» before the court-imposed deadline at the end of the month.
