As per a report from TMZ, several people lined up outside the courthouse to gain entry into the courtroom to witness the trial in person. The line at the door of the courthouse is to reportedly get the wristband that will allow them entry into the courtroom. The outlet also acquired pictures from outside the courthouse and pointed out that the majority of the people were Depp's supporters. 

Some people were seen holding a placard with 'I heart Johnny' written on to it to show their support for the 58-year-old actor. The outlet also reported that a majority of the people were from the younger age group. Meanwhile, videos and pictures from outside the courtroom also show Depp receiving support from his fans whilst entering the courtroom. 

The frenzy around gaining access in the courtroom earlier came to light when People Magazine reported that a fan of the veteran actor spent over $30,000, that is around Rs 23 lakh, on her travel & stay expenses just to watch Amber Heard and Depp's trial in person. The woman told the outlet, ''I took my whole year's vacation so I could be here for Johnny. I'm the same age as Johnny. I'm single, so I do what I want to, basically."

In the recent development, as per People, Depp's former partner Kate Moss is set to testify via video link after Heard mentioned the supermodel during her testimony. Moss will be asked to appear to dispel the rumour claimed by Heard in the court.
