Johnny Depp has won his defamation trial against Amber Heard, a Virginia jury decided Wednesday.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media that after less than three days of deliberation, the seven-person panel ruled that the Aquaman star defamed Depp in a late 2018 Washington Post op-ed. In the piece, Heard described herself as the “public face of domestic abuse,” more than two years after she accused Depp of physical abuse and obtained a restraining order against him.

Depp was seeking $50 million in damages, but the jury has awarded him $15 million - $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages. However, Judge Penney Azcarate quickly reduced the punitive damages figure to $350,000, the maximum allowed in the state, which makes Depp’s total haul around $10.4 million.
