yes skiers assume the risk. But Deer Valley isn't really a ski hill. The hardest runs are equivalent to beginner -intermediate at say Snowbird or the Canyons, and they are all beginner compared to Telluride or the bowls at Sun Valley. Most avid skiers pick somewhere else. Snowboards and celebrities have ruined skiing, and the term fall-line skiing. The better the skier the more time you sit on a chair, or riding the tram.
The etiquette of skiing says the up hill skier is at fault. No way is the up hill skier going to hit the down slope skier if the down slope is going faster, and if they are going slow or stopped, the up hill skier can turn to avoid them.
All the witness stuff is just trying to get around that. Control the words control the narrative.

Paltrow is the defendant and the defense hasn't started yet.

It allegedly happened 7 years ago. Why the long wait to sue? So all the witnesses would be hard to locate? I thought I read there that the dude tried once before on another tack, was kicked out of court, and is now trying again? Then again, I read a lot of scheidt on here and might have the stories mixed up. EDIT: Sanderson initially sued Paltrow for $3.1 million and claimed he was the victim of a hit-and-run on the slopes at the Deer Valley ski resort in 2016. A judge dismissed the claim and removed the exclusive resort and a ski instructor from the lawsuit before Sanderson proceeded with the $300,000 suit. Paltrow filed a countersuit seeking $1 and attorney's fees. Nah, I still got my scheidt straight. Smartest Man on the Campfire, Emeritus.

One eyed doc is going to lose because he ain't right in the head and has not been right in the head for a while.
He is trying to be famous for his 15 minutes of fame.
Hope his law dogs hit him up in the pocket book.

Originally I believe they sued for $3 million and that didn't go no where.

Question? If the plaintiff's attorney/s took the case on contingency, who actually has to pay the defendant's lawyers should she win her countersuit.

Paltrow's defense attorney is not impressive.

Now the guy's claiming he's had 3 near-death experiences because of the collision. They're getting desperate.

Gwyneth Paltrow Wins Lawsuit Over 2016 Utah Ski CrashBY SAM METZ / AP MARCH 30, 2023 7:04 PM EDT (PARK CITY, Utah) β Gwyneth Paltrow won her court battle over a 2016 ski collision at a posh Utah ski resort after a jury decided Thursday that the movie star wasnβt at fault for the crash. βI felt that acquiescing to a false claim compromised my integrity,β Paltrow said in a statement released by her representatives. βI am pleased with the outcome and I appreciate all of the hard work of Judge Holmberg and the jury, and thank them for their thoughtfulness in handling this case.β A jury dismissed the complaint of a retired optometrist who sued Paltrow over injuries he sustained when the two crashed on a beginner run at Deer Valley ski resort, siding with Paltrow after eight days of live-streamed courtroom testimony that made the case a pop culture fixation. Paltrowβs defense team represented Sanderson as an angry, aging and unsympathetic man who had over the years become βobsessedβ with his lawsuit against Paltrow. They argued that Paltrow wasnβt at fault in the crash and also said, regardless of blame, that Sanderson was overstating the extent of his injuries. full article here: https://time.com/6267412/gwyneth-paltrow-wins-lawsuit-ski-crash/
