Elaine will say anything for her 15 minutes of fame
|
Jeez here we go again! I personally thought she was very fair. |
Are you a trial attorney? |
Where does she own a home? One of Johnny’s former penthouses that she got in the divorce? |
And you wanna tell me you are? |
It is in the Spiegel's Newsweek article: "Before the trial, I had one 50 minute Zoom meeting with Amber Heard and I had lunch with her between sessions on May 23. She was very nice, very cordial and very polite." |
Having lunch with a client is absolutely normal, Just leave to Elaine to make it inappropriate! |
| I think AH career is about finished. |
She's 54 not 100. She's also a former Marine. She seems to have a lot of integrity.

I am not a trial attorney, but I am an attorney who oversees many trials so I am very familiar with how they work (particularly in Virginia state court). To clarify, though, while I am the poster who asked if you are a trial attorney, I am not the one who commented on the judge being of a certain age. I do think she made a number of highly questionable decisions in this case, so lots of potential grounds for appeal. That’s to be expected after a trial of this length, however, regardless of the skill of the judge. |
If you dig hard enough there is always ground for appeal with a trial that lasted that long. The judge's decisions to not allow some evidence also affected Depp, like the recording where Heard admitted to cutting the tip of his finger. |
The PP you are quoting is insinuating that the judge, a middle-aged woman, is biased towards JD because she's enamored (i'm putting it mildly) with him. AH's supporters have been accusing JD's supporters of being middle-aged dimwits who can't think of anything else but going to bed with him. SMH |
Is that all? That’s different from the concerns about Curry. |
Why? |
With Curry there were two issues. First, the muffins incident raised questions about whether Curry violated confidentiality by telling her husband she was going to be evaluating Amber Hears. Second, the meal Curry had with Depp was questionable because she had drinks and dinner with Depp in his home before being hired as an expert, which is not typically done in this context because it can create an appearance that the expert lacks objectivity. Overall, the incidents gave an appearance that Curry may have been star struck and raised questions about whether it affected her ability to evaluate the evidence objectively. |
