Jonny depp’s lawyer: Amber Heard is unable to pay $10 million damages

• A Virginia court found that Amber Heard defamed her ex-husband, actor Johnny Depp.
• She was unable to pay the $10.35 million in damages, according to her lawyer.
• “Oh, no, absolutely not,” said her lawyer, Elaine Bredehoft.

On Wednesday, June 1, the judge announced that Johnny, 58, would receive $10 million in compensatory damages from Amber and $5 million in punitive damages. Amber Heard, on the other hand, was given $2 million in compensatory damages for her case, but no punitive penalties.

According to the publication, Amber intends to appeal the decision. She took to social media after the trial to express her feelings.

She said on her Instagram account, “The disappointment I feel today is beyond words, I’m heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband”

Her concerns, according to the ‘Aquaman’ star, extended beyond her personal participation in the case, “I’m even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It is a setback. It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated,”

Added, “It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously,” she concluded, “I believe Johnny’s attorneys succeeded in getting the jury to overlook the key issue of Freedom of Speech and ignore evidence that was so conclusive that we won in the U.K. I’m sad I lost this case. But I am sadder still that I seem to have lost a right I thought I had as an American — to speak freely and openly.”

Depp and Heard married in a very secret ceremony at their Los Angeles home in 2015 after dating for several years. Heard filed for divorce from Depp on May 23, 2016, and secured a temporary restraining order against him. Depp allegedly abused her physically during their relationship, with the violence occurring most frequently while he was high on narcotics or alcohol, according to her.
