According to Eric D. Subin, a senior trial attorney and partner at Subin Associates, the huge move may assist the actor secure a court victory, giving her the opportunity to fight the case again.

“In order for Heard’s appeal to be successful, her counsel will need to convince the appellate court that there was such a mistake of law or fact that occurred during the trial and furthermore that the error caused harm to her ability to receive a fair trial,” the lawyer told the outlet.

Subin went on to say that if the actor is successful in her appeal, “then she’ll receive the opportunity to try the case again and the trial judge in the retrial will be bound by the ruling of the appellate court.”
