I felt that acquiescing to a false claim compromised my integrity. I 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.

— Gwyneth Paltrow, in a statement read after the jury issued its verdict in her favor in her ski accident trial. Retired optometrist Terry Sanderson filed a $300,000 lawsuit against Paltrow, alleging that reckless skiing caused the 2016 accident. Paltrow countersued for $1 and her attorneys’ fees. Paltrow reportedly whispered “I wish you well” into Sanderson’s ear before leaving the courtroom.
