The jury in Fairfax, Virginia, began deliberating Friday. The jurors consisted of five men and two women.
Depp sued Heard for $50 million after she wrote an essay for The Washington Post in 2018 that said she was a domestic abuse survivor. Amber has countersued Depp for $100 million.
The seven-person jury also awarded $2 million in compensatory damages to Amber, but $0 in punitive damages.
