In a lengthy ruling in the Johnny Depp v. The Sun UK case a Judge rules against Johnny Depp determining that the Sun’s statement that Johnny Depp was a ‘wife beater’ was substantially true and therefore the Libel case was denied. Depp has been ordered to pay the Attorney Fee’s for The Sun UK, the ruling Judge has denied an application for an appeal, Depp has stated that he will appeal to the next court. Deep maintains that he has not been violent towards Heard, his legal team has argued that she has created a Hoax. The Sun UK presented 14 incidents to prove that their statement was substantially true. There is still a pending Defamation case Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard pending in Virginia.

Election Lawsuit Updates & Thanksgiving
Since last week shit has popped off! I really didn’t want to cover the election lawsuits again. But it’s as crazy as Suenami 2020 and even though most of the lawsuits have been dismissed it hasn’t stopped the Trump legal team from leveraging massive allegations, then disavowing one of their own. I don’t even know how to summarize it. I am frustrated at this point. We should be moving closer to the end of this election, the funds have been released for the presidential transition, lawsuits have been dismissed. But no, we have larger allegations and intrigue within the Trump legal team. I am ready for some facts...and then some pumpkin pie.

The Erika Jayne, Tom Girardi Federal Lawsuit & Divorce
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Erika Jayne first caught our attention with eye-popping club music like Pretty Mess, Painkiller, and How Many Fu*ks. She has been on RHBH since 2015. Her husband is well-known attorney Tom Girardi who had numerous billion-dollar wins and settlements and whose PG&E case was made famous in the movie Erin Brockovich. Erika Girardi surprised everyone when she filed for divorce in November 2020. At that time it resurfaced that she had stated that she doesn’t have a prenup with Tom. A month later they were both sued in Federal Court alleging that Tom Girardi and his law firm Girardi Keese embezzled funds from the families of Lion Air crash victims whom he represented. The suit goes on to allege that the divorce is a sham to hide assets as the Firm Girardi Keese struggles to pay these clients, the firms debts, and to stay operational.
