Why did Amber Heard request a mistrial?
At the end of June, Heard’s legal team gave a plea for retrial on the terms that Junior, who presented at the Legal trial was not the same as who was summoned to the jury panel. They claimed that an approximately 50-year-old man was present on the jury instead of a 77-year-old man who was supposed to be present.
The team also mentioned that Amber was not provided with the proper process and thus she claimed to have a new or fresh investigation regarding the same.
What were Depp’s and his team’s reactions?
The team described Amber as an actress who is of 36 years and claims of baseless things. Also, the team added that Amber already had quality time to raise the issue before but she didn’t. She could have asked earlier, which she is raising now.
They further said that Amber chose to keep silent when the procedure was ongoing. The time was of 6 weeks which is surely not short spam of time.
On the other hand, Amber also said that the amount of ten million is also ‘huge’ for a defamation case. Also, that the actress is not financially strong to pay the excessive amount of 10 million bucks.
