She didn’t have time to hit the brakes! A man got hurt, that’s what will happen to Gwyneth
The 50-year-old actress is suing a 76-year-old ophthalmologist. Terry Sanderson said he was seriously injured after a collision with Gwyneth Paltrow (Gwyneth Paltrow) at a ski resort.
The Hollywood star will face an unpleasant and, apparently, protracted trial. The day before, she first appeared in a Utah courtroom at the suit of an ophthalmologist. Gwyneth chose a discreet casual look — she combined a beige jumper with a neckline with loose-fitting brown trousers.
Terry Sanderson is demanding £245,000 from Paltrow in moral damages. In general, in the event of a loss, the actress can lose 425 thousand pounds (more than 40 million rubles). “Paltrow crashed into a skier and then fled without saying a word,” the judge read out part of the accusation.
Paltrow and Sanderson sat opposite each other in the courtroom as their lawyers made opening statements giving startlingly different versions of what had happened. Both called their clients victims and blamed the opponent for the collision.
The incident took place at Deer Valley Ski Resort in Park City, Utah in 2016. The doctor claims the Oscar winner was «out of control» when she bumped into him.
According to the lawsuit, the incident resulted in the man suffering «a permanent head injury, four broken ribs, pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, emotional stress and mutilation.»
Lawrence Buhler, Mr Sanderson’s attorney, said the actress was distracted by one of her children, yelling, «Mama, mama, watch me ride.» “She looks up to see when she looked down,
she screamed. She skis into Terry Sanderson’s back. Sanderson is lying face down in the snow, unconscious,» a spokesman for the doctor said.
