Johnny Depp suffers blow in libel case against 'The Sun'

Hollywood star Johnny Depp’s libel case against the UK tabloid 'The Sun' suffered a major blow after a judge ruled that he violated a court order by failing to disclose evidence relating to his drug use to lawyers for the British tabloid.

Reports say the judge deferred the decision on whether to throw out Depp’s claim against The Sun and will take up the matter on July 7.

Depp sued the newspaper’s publisher, and Executive Editor over a 2018 article claiming the actor was violent and abusive to his ex-wife, Amber Heard.
