View Joshua’s legal analysis of Johnny Depp’s defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard on Law & Crime Network below.
Depp sued Heard for $50 million over a December 2018 op-ed she wrote, claiming she was a victim of domestic abuse, which was published in the Washington Post. Heard counter-sued for $100 million, claiming she was defamed by Depp through his attorney Adam Waldman.

The jury awarded Depp $15 million in damages, finding that Heard defamed him on all three counts. Heard was awarded $2 million after the jury found that Waldman defamed Heard on one of three counts in her countersuit.
