Amber Heard wants to appeal the trial verdict

Her legal team informed the court in Fairfax County, Virginia, on Thursday, the industry publication Deadline.com reported, citing court documents. As the actress’ spokesperson said in a statement to the Internet portal “TMZ.com”, the court made a mistake and thus prevented a “fair” verdict.

After a six-week defamation trial, in which the ex-husbands accused themselves of domestic violence, the jury largely sided with Depp at the beginning of June – but also agreed with Heard on some points. She has to pay Depp more than $10 million in damages for defamation. Depp owes her two million dollars for statements by his ex-lawyer that are said to have damaged Heard’s reputation, according to the jury’s decision.

At the heart of the civil lawsuit filed by Depp was a comment published by the Washington Post in 2018 in which Heard described himself as a victim of domestic violence.
