Gwyneth Paltrow wins Utah ski collision trial, Terry Sanderon to pay her $1

Gwyneth Paltrow has won her court battle over a 2016 ski collision at a Utah ski resort after a jury decided that the actor wasn’t at fault for the crash. The court ruled in favour of the Iron Man actress and awarded her the symbolic $1, which she had sought apart from her legal team's fees from complainant Terry Sanderson. Gwyneth's victory came after she opted to take the case to trial rather than settle out of court. On the final day of hearing, which lasted two hours, the jury unanimously found Gwyneth was not at fault.
