Court Rejects Amber Heard's Request For New Trial In Defamation Case Against Johnny Depp
Amber Heard's request for a fresh trial in her defamation lawsuit with ex-husband Johnny Depp was denied by court on July 13 after her attorneys argued that one of the jurors had served inappropriately. After a jury determined that Heard had defamed Depp in a newspaper opinion article, Heard was forced to pay Depp $10.35 million in damages. A judge said "no evidence of fraud or wrongdoing" by the juror.
