Court Rules Against Subpoena in Blake Lively Case: Insufficient Evidence for Probable Cause
A recent court order in the ongoing Blake Lively case has brought to light important legal considerations regarding attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. The order, issued on June 5th, 2025, centers around subpoenas issued to Jonesworks, a company that hired Edgeworth, a security firm, seeking documents related to the termination of Jenny Abel. The judge's decision highlights the insufficient evidence presented by the opposing party to meet the standard of probable cause. "The court found that the evidence presented did not meet the standard of probable cause," explains a legal expert in a recent video analysis of the case. This decision underscores the importance of sufficient evidence in legal proceedings and the protection offered by attorney-client privilege and the work product doctrine. The case continues to evolve, and its outcome will have significant implications for future legal cases involving similar circumstances.
