Gwyneth Paltrow, the Oscar-winning actress and founder of luxury lifestyle brand Goop, is currently involved in a civil trial after being sued by a retired optometrist who accused her of causing permanent brain damage after crashing into him while skiing in Utah.

In 2019, Terry Sanderson, 76, filed a lawsuit against Paltrow initially seeking $3 million in damages. The amount has since been dropped to $300,000. Sanderson alleges that on February 26, 2016, he was skiing on a beginner’s slope at Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah, a resort town known for hosting the Sundance Film Festival.
