Amber Heard’s attorneys filed new papers this week in Virginia, asking the judge to entirely overturn the verdict in favor of Johnny Depp, dismiss the suit, or order a new trial, TMZ reports.
New twist in the Johnny Depp – Amber Heard affair. Indeed, the actress wants an overhaul in court, citing shoddy evidence and an alleged fake juror, TMZ reports. His lawyers filed new documents to that effect this week in Virginia.
They present many arguments. Among these: the lack of evidence presented on the side of Johnny Depp to convince the jury that this case had damaged his career. For them, the actor was already in bad shape professionally speaking. Moreover, the actress’s team claims that evidence in favor of Amber Heard has also been lacking.
Beyond the evidence, a juror considered problematic is also mentioned. Juror #15, whose year of birth is 1945, would not have done his job properly. He would also have lied about his date of birth (1970). If it’s proven that the man shouldn’t be on the jury, we’d have to start over. The case is ongoing.
