Paltrow filed her own countersuit about a month after Sanderson in 2019. According to Paltrow, she was angry with Sanderson and he apologized. Paltrow repeated her claim that Sanderson had skied directly into her back and caused the accident. The collision took place on the first day of their trip to the resort, Paltrow said. He also claimed Paltrow left the scene without giving him her name or contact information, nor did she call for help. She is the latest to testify in the trial since it first began four days ago.

And my knee splayed open, and I was in shock.” Sanderson is seeking “more than $300,000” in damages, while Paltrow has countersued for $1 and attorney fees. Paltrow denied that she ever engaged in “risky behavior” on a ski run with which she said she was previously familiar. “I think you have to keep in mind, when you’re the victim of a crash … The proceedings will resume on Monday with Sanderson slated to testify. When asked if she was being an aggressive skier, she said no and that slope was a green run filled with families. He told the jury, of Sanderson: “His comprehension had gone down, he’d get confused … Attorneys for Paltrow and Sanderson have been jostling to convince the 10-member jury which skier was positioned downhill and therefore had the right of way. Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist, is suing the Oscar-winning actor for $300,000, claiming that her recklessness caused the crash and left him with lasting physical injuries. And they know me very well.” This is really really strange.” “I was skiing and two skis came between my skis, forcing my legs apart and then there was a body pressing against me and there was a very strange grunting noise,” Paltrow said.
The Oscar-winning actress reiterated multiple times that she had been the 'victim' of the crash, as she gave evidence on Friday.
I don’t know how he can be positive with what he saw, especially with how much he changed his story.

Mr Sanderson, she said, had mumbled that he was OK. "I was skiing and looking downhill as you do," she said.

Is someone doing something perverted?"

but we don't talk very often." The actress was sued for $300,000 by a man who claims she crashed into him while skiing, leaving him concussed and with broken ribs. Paltrow says she doesn't know how Craig Ramon - an "acquaintance" of Terry Sanderson who says he witnessed the crash - "can be positive of what he saw". "I don't believe that he saw what he thinks he saw," she says. She agrees that she "stuck around" after the incident, and denies the incident was a "hit-and-run" by her. The star is then asked if she was "accident prone" which prompts her lawyers to object before heading to the judge's bench for a discussion. Gwyneth Paltrow denies that she is counterclaiming for $1 because US singer Taylor Swift brought a similar "symbolic" lawsuit in the past. When asked if she lost more than $1 as a result of the collision, Paltrow says "I did". This was a claim made earlier this week by Craig Ramon - an "acquaintance" of Mr Sanderson who says he witnessed the crash - during his evidence. Gwyneth Paltrow denies that her ski instructor Eric Christiansen "yelled" at Terry Sanderson following the collision. He asks Paltrow whether the $1 she seeks "takes into account" that ski instructor Eric Christiansen was distracted from his job for a while following the 2016 collision - implying that it resulted in him losing pay. Steve Owens, Gwyneth Paltrow's lawyer, touches again on the "symbolic $1" that Gwyneth Paltrow is countersuing for.
The Oscar-winner said she was the “victim” as she entered the witness box to give evidence in her US lawsuit.

She then added she thought Sanderson’s injuries were “very minor on the day”. While Mr Sanderson is seeking “more than $300,000 in damages”, Ms Paltrow has countersued for $1 and attorney fees. The actress denied she engaged in “risky behaviour” on the ski run. Ms Paltrow testified on March 24 in Utah, Mr Sanderson crashed into her slowly as she was making her way down the slopes.

Reference to footage of the 2016 incident had previously been made during the trial in an email sent by the daughter of Terry Sanderson.
She added: “I have never seen GoPro video and I don’t know that it does exist. “If you had a choice between Mr Sanderson hitting Ms Paltrow or Ms Paltrow hitting Mr Sanderson, you would have to pick Ms Paltrow hitting Mr Sanderson from behind and falling on top of him to account for the rib fractures,” he said. “After my dad told me about what he was feeling and that he could hardly think, and that he had rung his bell I believe he mentioned, there had to be GoPro video,” she told the court.
The Oscar-winning actress testified that the man suing her was to blame for the 2016 incident.
