7 members of the jury (5 men, 2 women) have not yet reached a final verdict on the $ 50 million lawsuit between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard after Monday (May 31). Actors and stars do not appear on the important day.

The session lasted more than 7 hours with many stressful situations for the jury, according to the Daily Mail. They had to complete 42 questions in 8 pages, including 24 from Depp (plaintiff) and 18 counterclaims from Heard (defendant).

In addition, the jury carefully considered the damages that Johnny Depp and Amber Heard suffered when entangled in the lawsuit over time.

In the 37-page document provided by the judge on May 27, the jury asked whether they would rule based on Amber Heard's entire 2018 Washington Post article, or solely on headline: "I Speak Out Against Sexual Violence and Face the Wrath of Pop Culture".

Before those present at the trial, Judge Azcarate emphasized: "Based on the title, not the whole article."

Penney Azcarate, the trial judge, also warned the jury to consider each piece of evidence carefully, not to rush to conclusions. The jury has finished the second day of deliberation and will continue to work in court on June 1 (US time).

Speaking to the Washington Post, Jamie R. Abrams, a law professor at the University of Louisville (USA) expressed his opinion on the jury's decision: "One challenge they may face is to focus on the case. , do not allow their life experiences and biases to influence the conclusion of this trial.The jury's instructions are very specific in helping jurors focus on the legal issue, but This is really a challenge from a human perspective."

The jury's decision is also understandable because this is a case of interest and influence on the public.

It can be seen that the lawsuit between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard has caused division in the Hollywood community and fans. Even the Aquaman actress' parents are conflicted on this issue.

However, according to The Things, American singer and actress Courtney Love is in a strange situation when from publicly supporting Johnny Depp, she recently withdrew beautiful words about the Pirates of the Caribbean actor, at the same time showing sympathy for Heard.

Specifically, in the video, Courtney Love tells the story of being saved by Johnny Depp outside the door of The Viper Room nightclub (West Hollywood, California) in 1995. At that time, Love overdosed on stimulants and fell to the ground. She was fortunate enough to be given CPR by Depp and overcame the drug shock.

Courtney is also indebted to Depp when the actor showed interest in her daughter, Frances. The actress said the Hollywood actor had repeatedly contacted Frances while her mother was struggling to overcome addiction.

Using his influence, Depp sent his own limousine to school to take Frances and her friends to see Pirates of the Caribbean. This repeated over and over again, much to Frances' appreciation. Courtney said Depp was so thoughtful that he gave Frances a chair with her name engraved on it.

Depp is said to have volunteered to do this. He planned and arranged everything himself without discussing it with Courtney in order to surprise the actress's daughter.

Through her story, Courtney Love said she wanted to show support for the Hollywood actor.

According to The Things, after the clip was widely shared on social media, Courtney Love deleted the video. She posted another status line with the content of apologizing for questioning Amber Heard's motives.

She captioned in the video of walking the dog: "Social media platforms have publicly posted my story. I really didn't want that to happen (and certainly didn't mean it)."

The actor born in 1964 said that she was also a victim of online smearing and was hated by the whole world, so she understood Amber Heard's feelings, from which it was easier to empathize. And because of that, she didn't want to make Heard hate more just because of her statement.

"My friends have helped me get through these insults. I'm fortunate to have counselors for psychology, moral values. I learned to recover from that," Courtney said, while also expressing expressed neutrality in the Depp-Heard case.

"I don't want to bully anyone. I've been bullied enough. I don't want to show my prejudice to others. I don't want to contribute to more intense controversies on social media, causing anyone That has to suffer," she shared.

At the end of the article, the actress apologized if she accidentally hurt anyone. She promised to correct her mistake if she made a mistake. "I'm going back to normal life," she said.

Courtney's share was denounced by the Johnny Depp fan community as "hypocritical" because before that, the actress also criticized Heard for taking advantage of the movements to serve personal interests. Netizens flocked to Courtney's personal page and asked her to stop speaking about the lawsuit.
