JOHNNY DEPP VERDICT: ACTOR WINS DEFAMATION CASE AGAINST EX-WIFE AMBER HEARD

Depp was awarded $10.35 million in damages after a jury declared Heard defamed hilm on all counts following a nearly seven-week trial in Virginia amid allegations of domestic violence and sexual assault. Heard lost the defamation case, but was awarded $2 million in her countersuit as jurors found that Depp defamed her through his attorney.

Heard filed a notice of appeal in July to challenge the verdict in Depp's defamation trial against her.

Heard, 36, is asking the Virginia Court of Appeals to overturn the panel's decision after a shocking live-streamed trial that included allegations that the "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor had penetrated her with a liquor bottle and that she had lopped off the tip of his finger in a fit of rage.
