Although Amber Heard has starred in famous films like “Aquaman” and “3 Days to Kill,” $10.35 million is still a lot of money to pay out at one time (via IMDb). When the actor was ordered to pay the large amount to Johnny Depp following the verdict of their highly publicized trial, she thought she had the backing of an insurance company, per TMZ.
TMZ reports that after the trial, New York Marine and General Insurance company filed documents to avoid a $1 million policy Heard had “to protect her from defamation claims.” The outlet reports that the insurance company believes it’s protected by California law because Heard “committed willful misconduct” against Depp. Therefore, this would allow the company to avoid paying the insurance policy to Heard. The Texas native, however, is not going down without a fight.

The “Never Back Down” actor filed documents to countersue the insurance company’s claims, per the Daily Mail. Heard alleges that the company assured her that it would pay various costs in the trial with a million-dollar cap. But, with the insurance company attempting to dodge the payment, she’s claiming it has not held up its end of the deal. Heard is now claiming New York Marine and General Insurance company is breaching its contract and hopes the court will side with her this time around.
