Gwyneth Paltrow trial: jury begins deliberations after closing arguments

Accommodation New Zealand introduces

The eight-member jury in the Utah ski crash trial involving the actor and wellness entrepreneur Gwyneth Paltrow and the retired optometrist Terry Sanderson has gone into deliberations, following closing arguments from the prosecution and defense.

Sanderson, 76, claims the 50-year old Paltrow broke his ribs and inflicted concussion in the ski collision in 2016. Paltrow counters that the crash was not her fault.

Earlier, attorneys for Sanderson called Richard Boehme, a neurologist, as their final witness.

Though both sides have marshaled significant resources, the verdict could end up being remembered as an afterthought dwarfed by worldwide attention. The amount of money at stake pales in comparison to the typical legal costs of a multi-year lawsuit, private security detail and an expert-witness heavy trial.

The trial has shone a spotlight on Park City, an upscale ski resort that welcomes celebrities such as Paltrow for the Sundance film festival.
