Even though Johnny Depp may have prevailed in his defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, it appears that their legal disputes are far from done. The day after Amber Heard submitted an appeal of the judgement to the court, Johnny Depp responded to it by saying that he was “sure” the ruling would be upheld.
Amber Heard was ordered to pay $2 million in damages, but the actress later said she wouldn’t have the money to cover the large judgment. The Amber team filed an appeal against the judgment on July 21 and stated that they “think the court made errors that precluded a just and fair verdict consistent.” In an effort to recoup the $2 million award the Virginia jury granted the “Aquaman” actress in her $100 million countersuit against Depp, Johnny Depp moved quickly to file additional documents as his countermove.

Johnny Depp swiftly responds to Amber Heard’s appeal of verdict
According to a statement Johnny Depp’s representative provided to Deadline, “The jury listened to the extensive evidence presented during the six-week trial and came to a clear and unanimous verdict that the defendant herself defamed Mr. Depp, in multiple instances.” The representative continued, “We remain confident in our case and that this verdict will stand.”
A representative for Amber Heard discussed launching the appeal for the uninitiated. The representative continued, “We feel the court committed mistakes that prohibited a just and fair verdict consistent with the First Amendment, and we are consequently appealing the verdict. Even though we are aware that today’s filing will set Twitter ablaze, there are things we can do to make sure that justice and fairness are upheld.” The most recent occurs a week after a judge rejected Amber Heard’s request for a mistrial on the grounds that one of the jurors had not been called for jury service.
‘Round two will be the end of her’
Users of social media reacted quickly to Johnny Depp’s countermove. Another user commented, “Round two will be the end of her,” while another wrote, “She’s going to lose that one too, so find a job not acting and pay your debt you can shop at the Dollar Tree and Goodwill.” She requested it. like the last time she asked to appear foolish. Let’s go, AH. The subsequent one wrote on Twitter, “People trashing Johnny Depp and appealing the verdict are a hoot. If Amber Heard hadn’t submitted a Notice of Appeal, I have a strong suspicion that he wouldn’t have either.
In the meantime, someone argued, “Remember how I said FACTS MATTER. Johnny Depp HAS filed an appeal. He covered EVERY cost related to the appeal. Consider the distinction between a move to appeal and a successful appeal of the judgment. Additionally, someone else said, “I wish you lot would keep comments on. So that we could truly respond to you. Since Amber is, Johnny had no choice except to appeal. She so cannot begin collecting the $2 million. If she hadn’t said anything, he wouldn’t have appealed. “I honestly think he should have simply left it alone,” said one person in response. I think they still look over all the trial data. Now I agree if I’m mistaken and they don’t see everything.
