Terry Sanderson could be on the hook for covering actress and businesswoman Gwyneth Paltrow's legal fees after she prevailed against him in a court battle over a 2016 skiing accident.
jury last week sided with Paltrow
"Utah is different from other jurisdictions, where the prevailing party gets certain costs paid by the other side, but not their attorneys fees," Jessica Corpuz, a shareholder in the litigation department at Weintraub Tobin in Los Angeles, California, told CBS MoneyWatch."If you win a lawsuit, you get reimbursement of certain statutory fees, but generally you have to pay own attorneys fees.
Paltrow, for her part said in a statement after the verdict that she went on trial because"I felt that acquiescing to a false claim compromised my integrity." "Paltrow's attorneys have probably billed between $800,000 and $1,000,000 in fees, but that is purely my estimation," said Salt Lake City, Utah, attorney David Cutt of Cutt, Kendell & Olson."So Sanderson could be looking at a very significant judgment. The jury apparently realized that the whole thing was a sham.
