The actress wrote in a sworn declaration: “I live in fear that Johnny will return to (our house) unannounced to terrorize me, physically and emotionally.”

She said Johnny Depp was high and drunk when the incident occurred and that he pulled her hair, screamed at her, grabbed her face and hit her.

Amber Heard’s filing alleged a history of abuse throughout the relationship.

Her lawyer, Joseph Koenig, told reporters outside court: “The judge has reviewed the evidence that we presented.

“He issued a restraining order based on the evidence that he received and there will be a further hearing.”

Johnny Depp’s lawyer wrote in a court filing that the actor would agree to a mutual-stay order.

He is currently in Portugal with his band Hollywood Vampires.
