Amber Heard's team will not call Johnny Depp to the stand, a source close to Ms Heard said, a strategic U-turn in the last days of the high-profile trial. Ms Heard's team had planned to call Mr Depp for more questioning on Monday, but changed course without explanation at midday. Mr Depp, 58, sued his ex-wife for $50m (£40m) for a column she wrote in which she claimed to be a victim of domestic abuse. On Monday, the court in Fairfax, Virginia, heard from several witnesses called by Ms Heard's team, including psychologist David Spiegel. Ms Heard's team is expected to rest its case early this week before Mr Depp's team takes its final chance to sway the jury.
