On ski slopes, Utah law gives the skier who is downhill the right of way, so a central question in the case is who was farther down the slope when the collision transpired. Both Paltrow and Sanderson claim that they were farther downhill when the other rammed into them, causing their skis to intertwine and the two to tumble.
