Gwyneth Paltrow has won a high-profile civil court case against a man who claimed she crashed into him while skiing. She was awarded $1 in damages after the jury found retired optometrist Terry Sanderson was "100%" at fault for the skiing accident.
The jurors deliberated for two hours on Thursday after hearing eight days of evidence. Paltrow, dressed in a navy blazer jacket and striped shirt, did not react when the verdict was announced.
In a statement released after the verdict, she said she was "pleased" with the outcome. "I felt that acquiescing to a false claim comprised my integrity," she said. "I am pleased with the outcome and I appreciate all of the hard work of Judge Holmberg and the jury, and thank them for their thoughtfulness in handling this case. "Mr Sanderson, 76, sued the Hollywood actress for $300,000 (£242,000), saying the 2016 collision on the slopes of Utah left him with several broken ribs and severe brain injuries. Paltrow, who is also a lifestyle influencer, denied the claims, alleging Mr Sanderson crashed into her at the Deer Valley resort, and caused her to lose "half a day of skiing".
She counter-sued him for the awarded amount of $1 and her legal fees. During the court case in Park City, jurors heard evidence from a variety of medical experts, ski instructors, and members of both Mr Sanderson and Paltrow's family, including the actress' children Apple and Moses Martin.
