“We believe the Court has made mistakes that hinder a fair decision under the First Amendment. Therefore, we appeal the decision. “While we understand that today’s filing will spark a heated debate on Twitter, we still need to take steps to ensure justice,” Amber’s legal team said.

At the same time, Johnny Depp himself looks absolutely calm. The player’s representatives are confident that the judge will not appeal the decision. “The jury heard the evidence presented during the six-week trial and reached a clear and unanimous decision that the accused himself had repeatedly slandered Mr. Depp. “We trust our case and are confident that this sentence will be valid,” the lawyers for the Pirates of the Caribbean star said in a statement.

Recall that in early June, the jury unanimously found Amber Heard guilty in the case against Johnny Depp and ordered the actor to pay $ 15 million in damages. However, Western newspapers soon reported that the actress has serious financial problems and will appeal.
