The testimony during 6-weeks trial has details of their short-lived marriage. Heard testified that Depp physically or sexually assaulted her more than a dozen times. On the other hand, Depp testifies that he never struck the actress, and that she was the one who physically attacked him many times. While closing their arguments, both the sides told jury that ruling in their favour would give their lives back to their clients.바카라 웹사이트

On May 31, Depp라이브 바카라 attorneys asked the judge Penney Azcarate, to instruct the jury to disregard a portion of the closing argument by Heard라이브 바카라 attorney. In the written motion, Depp라이브 바카라 attorney said that Heard라이브 바카라 attorneys told the jury that decision of the case would send a message to “every victim of domestic abuse everywhere”. Furthermore, Heards attorney, told the jury that a ruling against them “sends a message that no matter what you do as an abuse victim, you always have to do more.”

“No matter how honest you are about your own imperfections and your own shortcomings in a relationship, you have to be perfect in order for people to believe you. Don’t send that message,” said Heard라이브 바카라 lawyer. Depp라이브 바카라 lawyers then said that the argument was improper and asked the jury to focus on a larger social objective then the actual case that needs a verdict.바카라 웹사이트

“Such argument by Ms. Heard라이브 바카라 counsel improperly invites the jury to decide the case ‘based on passion and prejudice’ and a specific jury instruction is necessary to cure this impropriety,” said Depp라이브 바카라 attorney.바카라 웹사이트

The judge then informed Depp라이브 바카라 counsel that she would not entertain the motion now because the case is in jury라이브 바카라 hands now.바카라 웹사이트
