After deliberating for all of Tuesday and roughly two hours last Friday, the jury in Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's defamation cases has not reached a verdict.

Jurors spent the holiday weekend away from the Fairfax County Court and continued deliberating at 9 a.m. on Tuesday. There are seven jurors deciding the case.

The jury is deciding whether two sets of statements, some from Heard's 2018 opinion editorial and the rest from Depp's former lawyer Adam Waldman's 2020 comments to the press, are defamatory enough to warrant damages. Depp is seeking $50 million, and Heard is seeking $100 million.


THE JURY SUBMITS A QUESTION DURING DELIBERATION IN JOHNNY DEPP V. AMBER HEARD

After their lunch break on Tuesday, jurors submitted a question to Judge Penney Azcarate regarding their instructions. They were seeking clarification about whether they ought to consider Heard's op-ed headline alone or the entire article. Azcarate instructed them only to consider the headline, plus the two excerpts also listed as statements.

Jurors were also expected to provide their own lunches, either by packing one or buying from the courthouse cafeteria. They ate in the public cafeteria in a roped-off area designated for jurors only.
