PARK CITY, Utah (June 15, 2023) - Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has been cleared of liability in a 2016 ski accident that injured retired optometrist Terry Sanderson. A jury of eight found Sanderson 100% at fault for the collision, which occurred on a slope in Park City.
Summary of the Trial
The two-week trial was broadcast live and generated significant media attention. Sanderson claimed that Paltrow collided with him from behind, causing him to fall and suffer a wrist fracture. Paltrow denied hitting Sanderson and argued that he was solely responsible for the accident.
During the trial, expert witnesses provided conflicting testimony about the cause of the collision. However, the jury ultimately concluded that Paltrow did not breach any duty of care owed to Sanderson and that he was the proximate cause of his own injuries.

"I am relieved that this matter has been resolved and that I have been found not liable," she said in a statement. "I wish Mr. Sanderson a full recovery and hope that he can move forward from this incident."
