“Ms. Heard had a right to rely on the basic protection, as prescribed by the Virginia Code, that the jurors in this trial would be individuals who were actually summoned for jury duty,” says a partially redacted new filing Friday by the Aquaman star’s legal team.
“In this case, it appears that Juror No. 15 was not, in fact, the same individual as listed on the jury panel,” attorney Elaine Bredehoft adds in language similar to a previous filing of June 24. “Ms. Heard’s due process was therefore compromised. Under these circumstances, a mistrial should be declared, and a new trial ordered.”
Unlike the previous motion and memorandum placed in the Fairfax County courthouse docket late last month to dismiss the June 1 verdict and get a new trial, today’s supplemental memo has a lot more details on what could snatch victory from Depp in his long legal battle with his ex-wife.
Not noticed by officers or clerks of the court, the younger individual made it all the way to the jury without apparently ever being asked to produce any ID, or with perhaps fake ID, the filing implies. Additionally, it looks like someone filled out the required online information form either intentionally or accidentally to say that they were born in 1945.
Unaware of this at the time and during the media-frenzied trial, Heard’s defense team now wants an explanation and to see some consequences, which could take the shine off Team Depp.
Right. That detail changes everything. Turns out she never left shit logs on the bed now.

She wants to give the world EVEN MORE meme material? Fine. Let's do this shit. Dumb cunt.

Not going to work. This motion and any appellate motion would be based on whether or not the inconsistency with the juror affected the trial. You can't call foul just because some idiot incorrectly filled out their year of birth unless that somehow prejudiced Heard. It didn't.
I believe in her, she can get up to three bottles a day if she tries hard enough.

Besides memes I don't care about that shit, but hearing how she was going down on 500$/bottle wine enraged me. That's probably as much as I spend on food for myself in a year.
