Ryan Baker Quoted by Newsweek on Johnny Depp v. Amanda Heard Trial Break

In a May 9, 2022 Newsweek article about the closely watched defamation litigation between Hollywood celebrities Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, Partner Ryan Baker said Amber Heard’s “testimony was quite compelling.” He added that it’s “hard to imagine that testimony won’t be bouncing around in the heads of jurors” during the week break in the trial “at the expense of the prior evidence.”

“Even if you’re not a fan of Amber Heard and you’re biased toward Johnny Depp, she has presented some fairly detailed, emotional, strong testimony.” The trial is set to resume May 16, 2022, and is expected to continue for two more weeks.
