Final thought for the evening -
@Eve_Barlow
- I don’t know you from Adam. You have every right to speak your mind and that would’ve been fine…but publicly shaming a court reporter because she was thrust into the middle of a high profile case - nope, that I cannot abide!

Wowww -
@Eve_Barlow
please tell me how publicly shaming the court reporter, who transcribed every single day of a 6-week trial (also doing real-time transcription for EVERY SINGLE SIDEBAR so counsel on both sides could read live), does anything other than show how low you can go?

Jury finds for Depp on all 3 statements and awards Depp $10M in compensatory damages and $5M in punitive damages (adjusted downward to $350K statutory max). Jury finds for Heard on 2nd of 3 statements (1/3) and awards Heard $2M in compensatory damages and $0 in punitive damages

To be clear - I don’t take sides (JD vs AH) but gaslighting the public to pick sides is horrific…what’s killing me right now is that gaslighting is coming from one side. I’d be calling it out if it were reversed. I call balls and strikes, and 1 team seems to keep walking batters

So much for public discourse and disagreement. The public square is open, unless it’s a truth you don’t want to hear… This was a case founded in 1st amendment principles, and AH’s legal team properly made that argument at closing. That makes this that much more astounding!!!

The disparity in the time for rebuttal was quite the controversy. When the judge announced the 39/6 split, AH’s team seemed totally taken off guard. They tried to argue that there were sidebars and Judge A clarified quickly, sidebars didn’t count towards either party’s time

My biggest takeaway from closing was that Rottenborn’s 1st amendment argument hit home with a lot of jurors. Regardless of how you feel, that was his best effort all trial. Camille did wonderful on rebuttal with some very strong rapid fire statements. Highlight of the closing.

Based on the limited scope of the transcripts she’s seeking to file, I expect this is in support of a motion for reconsideration. She won’t be expected to win that motion, but it’ll be used to help preview/narrow the issues she intends to appeal.
Amber Heard has now petitioned the court to file Under Seal numerous hearing and deposition transcripts in preparation to file an appeal.
