Amber Heard lost to Johnny Depp, what punishment?

Amber Heard and Johnny Depp's trial is entering its final days. The game is temporarily tilted in favor of the actor born in 1963. If the lawsuit is lost, Amber Heard will only be fined because this is a civil case.

Clearly, the testimony from the Aquaman star's witness team is somewhat inferior to Johnny Depp's in terms of credibility and validity. The actress's witnesses include her sister Whitney Henriquez, close friends: iO producer Tillett Wright, Bruce Witkin, Pennington, actor Ellen Barkin.

The common ground in their testimony all focused on Depp's addiction, temper, jealousy, and abuse of Heard. These details are not new, even mentioned in previous lawsuits between Depp and Heard.

In contrast, Depp's witness lineup is quite powerful, including experts, doctors, lawyers, policemen... Given their position, professional responsibilities, legality, and accuracy in each testimony. so it will be higher. So, to some extent, the jurors will certainly have confidence in the testimony of witnesses in Depp's defense.

Depp's legal team also learned of the loopholes in Heard's testimony, resulting in a strong and direct attack. Through the witnesses, they expose the false accusations from the other side.

Specifically, Heard accused Depp of trying to "kick" her from the Aquaman blockbuster. At the same time, she thinks that getting into trouble with her ex-husband makes it difficult for her to continue to accompany the superhero brand.

Before this allegation, Depp's side invited DC Films President Walter Hamada to "smash" Heard's words. The head of DC Films said that he considered replacing the actor to play Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom because Amber Heard acted weakly and interacted poorly with the male lead Jason Momoa.

Appearing through a pre-recorded video, Hamada affirmed that the litigation scandal involving Johnny Depp was not the reason why Heard could lose his role in the superhero blockbuster.

In addition, also during the litigation, Depp also clarified that he had met the leader of Warner Bros. but not trying to fire a spouse like Heard said. On the contrary, according to the actor, he convinced them to accept Heard in the project.

In another development, when Heard's witness, entertainment expert Kathryn Arnold, said that the star's career was heavily affected after being entangled in a lawsuit with her ex-husband.

This person also compared Heard's income with a series of other actors such as Jason Momoa, Ana de Armas, Gal Gadot, Zendaya, Chris Pine... and came to the conclusion that Heard's career path will flourish, if not negatively affected by the statement of Adam Waldman - Depp's former attorney.

Immediately, Depp invited Doug Bania - a damage assessment expert in the field of intellectual property - to counter Kathryn Arnol. This person emphasized that Amber Heard is not an A-list star despite the success of Aquaman (2018). At the same time, the Heard side should not compare the actress with the stars Gal Gadot, Zendaya, Chris Pine... That comparison is lame, because the above stars are all more famous than Heard many times, according to experts. Doug Bania.

Through cross-examination sessions, Depp and his team are creating dominance over the opponent and gaining certain advantages, creating public sympathy.

There is only one day left for the $50 million lawsuit between Depp and Heard to be over. The audience questioned whether the star or the actor will win the legal battle this time.

According to the Los Angeles Times, analysts after the attorneys for both sides finish their presentations, the seven members of the jury will begin deliberations. They will decide if Heard defamed Depp in a 2018 Washington Post article.

In the event that they found that Heard was deliberately defaming her ex-husband, the actress had to pay Depp damages. Although the defamation lawsuit is worth $50 million, it is the jury that decides whether the actor will receive more or less money.

Conversely, if the jury finds that Heard did not intentionally mention her ex-husband in the article, she will not have to pay compensation. Because this is a civil case, whatever the outcome, Heard and Depp are not facing criminal charges.

In a civil case, an individual or organization (plaintiff) asks the defendant to be responsible for harmful or wrongful acts. If the plaintiff is successful, they will receive compensation costs from the defendant.

Civil cases are diverse, from contract disputes, eviction from a residential area to injury from a car accident... Civil cases are aimed at compensating the victim. , not to punish the accused.

The burden of proof in civil cases is also lighter than in criminal cases. In a civil case, the jury only needs to decide which of the two disputing parties is more likely. Plaintiffs and defendants' attorneys will often argue with the ultimate goal of winning compensation.

Before entering the deliberation, Judge Penny Azcarate asked jurors not to read or view anything related to the case. Azcarate also told Depp and Heard directly: "Please don't post anything on social media this weekend." The lawsuit between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp has undergone 22 litigation sessions, expected to end on May 27.
