To anyone who has been following the #gwynethpaltrowskicrashcase more closely than I have, can you explain to me:

Why the heck didn't this settle?

The plaintiff seeks $300K. Gwyneth can sell enough "Smells Like My Orgasm Candles" ($75) to cover that.
2/ More than 95% of civil cases settle.

@GwynethPaltrow is presumably (a) rich & (b) averse to bad publicity.

When a case does go to trial, there's usually a reason (e.g., grudge match, no middle ground, etc.).

Why this can't be solved for $300K (or less)?
3/ I can see @CecereCarl's point as to, say, large companies and patent trolls.

But I can't imagine Paltrow is sued THAT often (or any more often than a comparable celeb).

And it's undisputed that an accident did happen.
