Gwyneth Paltrow was victorious in a lawsuit against retired optometrist Terry Sanderson, who accused her of a ski “hit-and-run” that caused him serious injuries. Paltrow argued that Sanderson was skiing recklessly and that she had no way of avoiding the collision. The jury’s decision protects Paltrow from having to pay Sanderson $300,000 in damages and sets a legal precedent for millions of skiers and snowboarders.
