Johnny Depp is heading back to court for an assault trial next month. Mercifully, this one will not be televised
Johnny Depp Photo: ELIZABETH FRANTZ/POOL/AFP via Getty Images What I would not give for a little break from reading the words “Johnny Depp” and “assault” and “trial” altogether in the same sentence. Unfortunately it appears the legal gods are impervious to my petitions for just a little reprieve, please, because here we are once again: .
When Brooks returned to work a few days later, he says, a producer asked him to sign a document promising he would not sue. Brooks declined, and claims he was fired. He then sued for assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence, and damages.
Further, the filing blamed Brooks’s “own carelessness, recklessness and/or negligence” for the alleged confrontation. Taken altogether, it sounds like Depp’s team is saying that the actor didn’t punch Brooks, but also that Brooks brought his injuries on himself when he forced Depp to defend himself.
