Judge Orders Delay for Johnny Depp Restraining Order Hearing
Amber will also call her friend and neighbour Raquel Pennington to speak as well as Pennington’s boyfriend Joshua Drew. iO Tillett Wright has also been listed whilst Amber’s team have also compiled medical records and a photo of Amber holding pills taken in 2014, which they have entered as evidence, TMZ reports.
It is unclear why the actress didn’t testify.
There are a few theories floating around, but let’s start with what we know for sure before speculating.
TMZ broke the story, Amber showed up around 11:50 AM Saturday for a 10 AM deposition.

The Heard source maintains to Us, however, “that there was nothing preventing Johnny’s counsel from commencing during the deposition time”.
The Depp source adds that the estranged spouses haven’t been in the same room since their May split, and that Depp has tried repeatedly to get Heard to settle.
After news was revealed on Tuesday that Johnny Depp’s team intend to use almost two-dozen witnesses and a secret photo to support the actor’s claims, information has emerged claiming Amber Heard’s lawyer plans to use evidence of medical care to prove prior alleged domestic violence.
