Gwyneth Paltrow walks away with a dollar damages as jury clears her of blame for ski resort collision

Gwyneth Paltrow yesterday (Thursday, March 30) won her court case over a ski slope crash - and walked away with damages of just one dollar.

A jury in Park City, Utah, the resort where the 50-year-old Oscar winner and retired optician Terry Sanderson, 76, collided in 2016 took just over two hours to rule that Paltrow was not at fault for the crash. It left Mr Sanderson with several broken ribs and head injuries. The jury found he was "100%" to blame for the events.

Mr Sanderson had sued for over $300,000, but during closing arguments yesterday his lawyer, Lawrence Buhler suggested the jury, who had heard eight days of evidence, might award him compensation of more than $3million. Both parties were in court for the closing arguments and the verdict.
