Court denies Amber Heard's request for spousal support

Amber Heard's request of 50,000 dollars a month spousal support has been denied for the time being, due to the unsettled financial arrangements with her husband Johnny Depp.
According to the 52-year-old actor's attorney Laura Wasser's response, "The Court therefore has no financial information upon which to make the financial orders requested at this time," reports E! Online.
The 30-year-old actress in her request for spousal support, wrote, "Concurrent with this filing I am providing an Income and Expense Declaration. I am requesting $50,000 a month as and for pendente lite spousal support based on our marital lifestyle."
Depp's attorney further argued that as a successful actress with significant income of her own, "there is no question that Amber can support herself until the parties have had a reasonable amount of time to assess their finances with the assistance of counsel and then negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution or seek regularly-noticed court orders."
Heard has been recently granted a domestic violence restraining order against the 'Alice Through the Looking Glass' actor after showing up to a Los Angeles courtroom visibly bruised in the face.
