Gwyneth Paltrow prepares for ski accident lawsuit in Utah.

Gwyneth Paltrow is set to face a civil lawsuit brought against her by Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist who claims she injured him in a ski hit-and-run seven years ago in Park City, Utah. Paltrow claims she was hit from behind by another skier, while Sanderson alleges that Paltrow slammed into him in a "full body hit" causing him permanent traumatic brain injury, four broken ribs, pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, emotional distress, and disfigurement. The trial will decide who is responsible for the damages, with Sanderson seeking $300,000 in compensation and Paltrow seeking a single dollar in damages and for her legal fees to be covered.
