Rules of the mountain. He’s uphill, his responsibility to avoid collision. So seems like he has to overcome that evidentiary burden at least.

There are no lines in a place like this. We're not skiing at Liberty, sweetheart!
Really? Every time I've been to Deer Valley there have been lines. Granted not long ones, but it's not like it's deserted. You basically have to ski high up or black runs or both to avoid all lines.
There are lines (not on every lift) but not something that would put you out enough to have instructors tag along. That's just a nice bonus but instruction is great at any level.
I think based on the jury being from park city and likely skiers, they will dismiss this or award him less money.
He was originally asking for 3 million but the judge did something to make it 300k.

But you have no doubts about the old man who had a head injury but recalls with precise detail what happened? Who also is likely star struck and sees dollar signs in his eyes with this case? No credibility issues there?
Who also emailed his daughter immediately and said he would be famous because of this incident. He just wants his name in the news.
I don't see how that's some smoking gun? Her crisis pr is grasping at straws leaking that to every tabloid. And he was right, he was/is briefly famous because Hollywood royalty injured him. If Trump or Biden ran into you on the slopes or on a bike ride, you could send a similar email to family. Your name is about to be everywhere.
If Trump ran into me I'd be dead.
Trump careening down a ski slope in his baggy suit is now playing through my mind.

I wouldn't. Ski instructors have no reason to lie, it's not like they are permanent household employees. We always have ski instructors for our kids for a variety of reasons, and I seriously doubt any of them would ever lie for us in spite of being paid by us. That's just what they do and how they make money.

Literally everyone we know pays ski instructors to take their kids so they can go and actually enjoy skiing. And so their kids learn to be strong skiers. We don't, because we're broke. But it's an odd thing to get hung up about.

I’m her age. I think she looks good. I like the sweater but wouldn’t wear it to court. Do not like the glasses.

Yes, and the internet making fun of her Jeffrey Dahmer glasses.

I feel like if she was at fault she would’ve settled. Seems like she’s trying to push back on principle since she counter sued for $1.
Counter suing for $1 was a smart thing to do.
+1
Can you explain the point of the counter suit? Just $1 to show she's not after money but just wants the truth? Or is there more to it that I don't understand?
That's it. She is resisting the shakedown, showing that for her it's not about the money.

He originally sued for 3million but the judge ruled that was excessive and reduced.
