According to AP News, the legal feud will now be tried on March 9, 2026. A New York federal judge, Lewis J. Liman, fixed the date in a late order earlier in the week.

As part of the order, the judge moved an initial conference for the trial from mid-February to next week.

Both parties will address complaints about pretrial publicity and attorney conduct in the conference, which is seemingly linked to Lively's lawyers' claim that Baldoni's legal team tried to taint potential jurors.
