Gwyneth Paltrow will get only $1 in ski-crash trial, forgoing recovery of legal fees
LA TimesGwyneth Paltrow speaks in March with Terry Sanderson, the man who sued her unsuccessfully over a skiing accident. “The jury found that Terry Sanderson was 100% at fault, and that he caused Gwyneth Paltrow’s harm.” The former doctor’s lawsuit, filed in 2019, originally sought $3 million in damages, but that request was ultimately reduced to more than $300,000. As Paltrow left court, she touched Sanderson’s shoulder and said, “I wish you well,” Sanderson told reporters outside the courthouse. He said he responded, “Thank you, dear.” After the verdict, Sanderson’s attorneys said they were weighing whether to appeal the case or to file for a new trial. However, the court’s ruling showed that Sanderson agreed “not to appeal the verdict or file any post-verdict motions.” The Associated Press contributed to this report.
