Gwyneth Paltrow Trial Live: Goop mogul wins $1 damages for whispering last message to ski accident accuser

But despite his arguments, the jury found Terry Sanderson to be “100 percent at fault for the accident.”

The Goop Foundation won her ski crash experience, but she’s garnered just as much attention for her “subtle glamor” wardrobe.

After a high-profile two-week trial in Utah, jurors returned a verdict in favor of the Oscar-winning actress after just over two hours.

Sanderson sued Paltrow over the collision, which occurred at Deer Valley ski resort in Utah more than seven years ago, leaving him with multiple broken ribs and serious head injuries.

She had denied the allegation, and accused Mr Sanderson of bumping into her, resulting in her missing “half a day of skiing” with her family and being “in pain”.

Jurors on Thursday assigned “100%” blame to Sanderson for the accident, finding him responsible for the injuries to Paltrow.

They awarded the actress her “symbolic” counterclaim of $1 in damages.

Mrs. Paltrow and Mr. Sanderson, who testified during the trial, were present in court for sentencing.

The actress wore a blue jacket, with a white shirt and brown pants, and she did not seem to react to the referee’s response, but she let out a long breath.

When I came out of the courtroom, I touched Mr. Sanderson on the shoulder and whispered something to him.

She previously said she felt “very sorry” for his deteriorating health in the aftermath of the accident, but maintained that she was not “at fault” and said she was the “victim”.

Mr Sanderson’s lawyers previously proposed that a jury award more than $3 million in damages in the case.

Jurors found Terry Sanderson at fault for colliding with Ms. Paltrow on the slopes at the luxury Deer Valley Resort near Park City, Utah, on February 26, 2016.

The decision comes after two weeks of complex testimony by neurology and brain injury experts on both sides. Eyewitnesses, Deer Valley employees, Mrs. Paltrow’s sons Apple and Moses, and Mrs. Sanderson’s two daughters also testified under oath.

The referee actually awards Ms. Paltrow a token $1.

Asked as he left the court what factors determined the outcome, he said: “It should have been the facts of the accident, because he absolutely brought the truth to the accident. There was no reason to walk away from that and it still is, and I brought him in for that reason.”

“I wanted to see if justice prevails in those situations, but it becomes a character assassination…they become things you thought were long gone in your life, things from thirty years, forty years ago, that must have been meaningless.”

He added, “You get some supposed credibility out of being a famous person… Who wants to take on a celebrity? No wonder I hesitated. It’s hard. Who wants to do that.” [versus] Someone who learns lines, learns to play someone else and be believable, be credible, and win awards? Who wants to go down this path? After being pressed about whether he thought Paltrow was lying, he said, “I think she thinks she has the truth…but I just know I said I wouldn’t make any lies.”

He said he was “very disappointed” with the ruling, but thought it was “very nice” of Paltrow to wish him well after the ruling.

Speaking to reporters gathered after the trial, Sanderson said he wasn’t sure the lawsuit was worth it, and argued that people are naturally inclined to believe celebrities like Paltrow.

“You get some supposed credibility from being a famous person,” he said, according to the Associated Press. “Really, who wants to run into a celebrity?”

online mail described Mr. Sanderson is “shrunken” but stands by his version of events. When asked what he plans to do next, he is said to have joked, “Maybe Disneyland!”

Sanderson’s extensive outdoor trips before and after his skiing accident were a key issue in the lawsuit, as Paltrow’s attorneys tried to show that his injuries were not life-altering as he claimed.

What did Gwyneth Paltrow say to Terry Sanderson on her way out of the fashion show?

Pictures from court showed the star leaning close to her former opponent and chatting to him with some recent messages, exciting speculations about what she said.

According to the Associated PressSanderson told reporters that she touched his shoulder and whispered, “I wish you well.” He said he replied, “Thank you, honey.”

John Leguizamo joked if “white people can take Latino roles” then he wants to play Gwyneth Paltrow in The Ski Accident Trial.

Speaking about Latino underrepresentation in Hollywood, the 62-year-old actor said that it is not right to cast non-Latino actors in Latino roles.

Actor Busy Philipps shared a toast, posting a selfie with the now-infamous quote.
