There is enough evidence to support Johnny Depp‘s $50 million claim of defamation.

On Tuesday, the actor’s legal team rested their case after 13 days of testimony as Depp says Amber Heard ruined his career by presenting herself as a victim of abuse. After hearing oral arguments by both sides, the judge denied a motion from Heard’s legal team to dismiss the lawsuit.

Depp is suing Heard over a Dec. 2018 op-ed she wrote that was published in The Washington Post. There are three parts of the article that Depp is suing over specifically. One is the title of the online op-ed: “I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.” The second is how Heard described herself as “A public figure representing domestic abuse.” The third is when she wrote, “I had the rare vantage point of seeing, in real-time, how institutions protect men accused of abuse.”
