Gwyneth Paltrow still feels like her 2023 ski trial was “ridiculous,” even two years later.
In a recent installment of “The World’s First Podcast”, the Academy Award-winning actress and businesswoman looked back at the legal case that originated from a crash on a Utah ski slope in 2016.
Paltrow expressed her disbelief by saying, ‘It’s astonishing to think someone could ski into you from behind, knock you down, then sue you.’ She added, ‘This epitomizes what’s wrong with our legal system.’
She stated, “It was absurd, so I felt compelled to resist. Essentially, I said to myself, ‘I won’t be intimidated here.’ I refuse to comply with that.”
Or more colloquially:
She said, “That was just plain stupid, so I stood my ground. Basically, I told myself, ‘I’m not going to back down here.’ I’m not giving in to that.
In 2019, Dr. Terry Sanderson initially filed a lawsuit against Gwyneth Paltrow for $3.1 million, but later amended it to seek $300,000. Sanderson alleged that Paltrow had collided with him in an incident at Deer Valley Resort in 2016, which resulted in his ongoing health problems. However, Paltrow counter-sued for a symbolic $1 and legal fees. After an eight-day trial in Park City, Utah in 2023, the jury ruled that Paltrow was not responsible for the incident. The trial included some unusual occurrences.
After the court’s decision, the star of Avengers: Endgame expressed in a previous statement, “I believed that giving in to an untrue claim undermined my integrity. I am content with the result and I express gratitude for Judge Holmberg and the jury’s hard work, and appreciate their careful consideration while managing this case.
During the final statements of the trial, Stephen Owens, Paltrow’s lawyer, expressed that his client had been subjected to repeated attacks in the courtroom, likening it to being hit like a punching bag. He further stated, “He struck her, caused pain, and he should not receive any compensation for causing her harm.
