Johnny Depp and Amber Heard seem like they will never stop finding themselves in new and unexpected results of the recent trial.

Actor Johnny Depp has filed court papers to appeal a judgment against him and in favor of his ex-wife Amber Heard.

This Court is bound by the competent decision of the jury.” Fast and furious on so many levels, Depp’s notice of appeal and Heard’s from Thursday come just over a week after Azcarate dismissed an ambitious attempt by the latter’s Elaine Bredehoft-led team to throw the $10.3 million award and verdict in Depp’s favor and get a whole new trial. “The verdict speaks for itself, and Mr. Depp believes that this is a time for both parties to move on with their lives and heal,” the source added.
