JAKARTA - Amber Heard's legal team no longer plans to summon Johnny Depp to testify in the ongoing defamation trial. Previously, Heard's legal team planned to summon Depp to testify on Monday, May 23. However, this was canceled because Depp's statement was deemed irrelevant to the core of the feud between the two.

"Call Depp back as a witness because he doesn't need it at all. All of Depp's statements to date are irrelevant to this case and there is no reason to believe that this time will be different," said a source quoted by People on Tuesday, May 24.

Heard sued Depp for libel and demanded $100 million in damages and argued that her ex-husband had accused Depp of lying and damaging his career.

Previously, Depp had sued Heard for defamation related to an opinion article written in 2018. Although he did not name names, Heard said he had experienced domestic violence.

Quoted from ANTARA, this is the last week to collect statements from witnesses and is expected to be completed by the end of this week.

The change in Heard's plan of legal tactics comes just hours after a source close to Depp confirmed that his ex-girlfriend, Kate Moss will appear in Fairfax, Virginia, court via video link on Wednesday.

Moss, 48, was referenced by Heard earlier this month during his testimony when discussing an alleged altercation between Depp and Heard's sister, Whitney Henriquez.

Johnny Depp has previously testified that his aim was to set the truth straight and seek to clear his name at trial. He insisted that Heard's accusations had cost Depp everything.
