District Judge Lewis Liman from Manhattan threw out the case on Thursday because of jurisdictional issues.
Lively, who is married to Ryan Reynolds, accused Baldoni of harassment during the filming of the 2024 romance film, It Ends With Us.
She sued Baldoni, his production company, Wayfarer Studios, and others, seeking damages for alleged harassment, defamation, invasion of privacy, and violations of federal and state civil rights laws.

Lively alleged that the defendants created a sexually charged atmosphere during the film's production and then schemed to silence her from speaking out.
The film starred both Lively and Baldoni, with the latter also directing.
The rift between the pair exploded into the public when Lively filed a complaint with the California civil rights department.
She followed the complaint with the lawsuit in Manhattan.
The New York Times published an article about the events, titled: "'We Can Bury Anyone': Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine."
Later, Baldoni sued Lively and her Hollywood star husband Reynolds for defamation, but Judge Liman also tossed this case in June.
