The court found Gwyneth Paltrow not guilty of the ski crash and awarded her a nominal fee of $1 for “economic damages.”
According to Paltrow, she requested the symbolic dollar as a way to acknowledge the legal process and to put the matter behind her. She also asked for reimbursement of her attorney’s fees, which would be a separate issue.
Notably, “economic damages” typically refer to quantifiable financial losses resulting from an accident, such as medical expenses or lost income. It’s unclear what specific economic damages Paltrow was awarded the $1 for.
Overall, while the $1 award may seem insignificant given Paltrow’s wealth, it appears to be a deliberate decision on her part to bring closure to the case.
