According to reports, Johnny Depp will appear in court with his lawyer Camille Vasquez to address claims that he assaulted a staff worker.

With Vasquez and Ben Chew leading his legal team, the Pirates of the Caribbean actor recently won his defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard.

She is expected to represent the 58-year-old in his future court appearance, according to sources.

Depp is accused of assaulting City of Lies crew member Gregg ‘Rocky’ Brooks while on site in 2017, according to a personal injury lawsuit filed by the location manager.

He allegedly hit Brooks twice in the ribs when they were filming in April 2017, and stated he would pay $100,000 to ‘punch [him] in the face.’

Depp, on the other hand, has claimed that Brooks ‘provoked’ others on set and that his actions were in self-defense.

Brooks said in the legal documents that his acts were ‘deliberate and malicious’ and done ‘for the purpose of’ embarrassing him, and that his alcohol and rage caused a ‘hostile, abusive, and unhealthy’ work environment.

He further stated that after refusing to sign a release waiver addressing his right to sue, he was eventually sacked from the film.

The trial is set to begin on July 25, although it’s unclear whether cameras will be permitted in the courtroom following Depp’s livestreamed trial against Heard on YouTube.

The actor sued his ex-wife for defamation after she wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post in 2018 on her experience with domestic abuse.

A jury found in his favor and granted him $10 million after a lengthy court session in Virginia and only 13 hours of deliberation, with Heard winning one of her three countersuit allegations.

The legal team for the Aquaman actress indicated that she will appeal the ruling.

Following the trial, Vasquez was elevated to partner level, according to Brown Rudnick.

‘We are thrilled to announce Camille Vasquez’s promotion to partner,’ according to a statement.
