Because the case of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard could go back to court

Last June, Judge Penney Azcarate ruled in favor of Johnny Depp in the Amber Heard defamation case, forcing the actress to pay more than $ 10 million. However, during the legal proceedings, the plaintiff’s attorney made some comments that forced Depp to pay Heard financial compensation that could take them back to court.

While the ‘Aquaman’ protagonist’s debt was $ 10.4 million for damage repairs, Johnny Depp has to pay Amber Heard $ 2 million, of which he said he was unwilling to pay. According to information from TMX, the lawyers of the actor “Pirates of the Caribbean” refuse to pay the amount requested by the state of Virginia, as they consider the accusation unfair.

The statements by attorney Adam Waldman during the trial of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard could return them in court, after saying, “Amber and her friends spilled wine and mistreated the place. They staged their stories under the direction of a lawyer and publicist, then made a second call to the emergency health services ”, which was considered libel.

For such words, Johnny Depp’s legal team considers it “unfair” that the plaintiff should pay the $ 2 million, which is why he filed an appeal. According to the film actor’s legal representatives, a 44-page appeal has been filed in which it is established that “the judgment in favor of Miss Heard for a statement is incorrect”.

Will Johnny Depp and Amber Heard return to the trial?

Waldman told the Daily Mail that the Amber Heard’s allegations of violence were “drunkard nonsense”, Which, according to the plaintiff’s lawyers, his words had the intentions behind:” Even though the court finds Depp guilty of inciting Waldman’s actions, the court erred in dismissing the summary judgment motion because Ms. Heard did not present evidence to establish one of the elements of defamation requested, especially not knowing whether Waldman’s acts were committed with malice. “

The team of representatives ensures that there is no evidence that Johnny Depp had anything to do with Waldman’s statements, even when he was his attorney during the trial. The truth is that, with some trials in the justice system being delayed, answering Johnny Depp’s appeal could take a few months, and until then it will be known whether they will both return to court.

For now both actors are trying to resume their lives normally, Johnny Depp focusing on his career as an actor and musician, after the disclosure of documents in which several stars have withdrawn their support for the actor. And Heard, awaiting news of his participation in “Aquaman and the Lost Empire” as he continued his new life in Spain with his daughter and a close friend.
