Belen v. Ryan Seacrest Productions (Cal. Ct. App. - June 29, 2021)

Ryan Seacrest takes it on the chin in today's opinion by the Court of Appeal.

Not that he's found liable for anything.  But his production company loses its attempt to get a lawsuit against it dismissed on an anti-SLAPP motion.

The lesson to be learned is:  Make sure you get releases from anyone you put on television.

Particularly when, as here, the person you film is essentially naked.
