Actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard바카라s defamation trial has been in the headlines for some time now. Reports suggest that the jury has finished the second day of deliberations without reaching any verdict.
According to India TV, the seven person civil jury heard the closing arguments on May 27, and deliberated for about two hours before leaving for the long memorial day weekend. They resumed the deliberations on May 31, which went on for seven hours.
Depp is suing his ex-wife, Heard, for $50 Million, accusing her of defaming him in a 2018 opinion piece that she wrote wherein she called herself, 바카라a public figure representing domestic abuse.바카라 Heard then filed a counterclaim worth $100 Million against Depp. Each of them is accusing the other of ruining their career.
The testimony during 6-weeks trial has details of their short-lived marriage. Heard testified that Depp physically or sexually assaulted her more than a dozen times. On the other hand, Depp testifies that he never struck the actress, and that she was the one who physically attacked him many times. While closing their arguments, both the sides told jury that ruling in their favour would give their lives back to their clients.
On May 31, Depp바카라s attorneys asked the judge Penney Azcarate, to instruct the jury to disregard a portion of the closing argument by Heard바카라s attorney. In the written motion, Depp바카라s attorney said that Heard바카라s attorneys told the jury that decision of the case would send a message to 바카라every victim of domestic abuse everywhere바카라. Furthermore, Heards attorney, told the jury that a ruling against them 바카라sends a message that no matter what you do as an abuse victim, you always have to do more.바카라
바카라No matter how honest you are about your own imperfections and your own shortcomings in a relationship, you have to be perfect in order for people to believe you. Don바카라t send that message,바카라 said Heard바카라s lawyer. Depp바카라s lawyers then said that the argument was improper and asked the jury to focus on a larger social objective then the actual case that needs a verdict.
바카라Such argument by Ms. Heard바카라s counsel improperly invites the jury to decide the case 바카라based on passion and prejudice바카라 and a specific jury instruction is necessary to cure this impropriety,바카라 said Depp바카라s attorney.
The judge then informed Depp바카라s counsel that she would not entertain the motion now because the case is in jury바카라s hands now.
