A jury has said that actor Keanu Reeves doesn’t rest on anything to a paparazzo who litigated him, claiming that Reeves was responsible for the paparazzi photographer’s alleged injuries. Alison Silva, the photographer, sued the actor who acted in films such as The Matrix, Speed and Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, for an incident in March 2007. Reeves was accused of striking Silva with his Porsche, causing him to fall and injure his left wrist.
Silva had claimed an alimony of a sum of US$711,974 from Reeves to the jury. This money includes medical bills, lost wages and punitive damages. While Silva was interrogated by the jury for the past 5 days, time and again he had given contradictory statements about what exactly happened on the day of the accident. He even presented a video of Keanu Reeves, which he claims to have shot with his injured hand.
The closing arguments were issues by the attorneys for both the sides on Friday. They considered about five minutes and left for the weekend. The juries again resumed their work on Monday morning. The panel of jury were an eminent Hollywood bunch, one claiming to be an animator for The Simpsons, while the other works as a coordinator of movie filming in public parks.
Reeves was seen in the courtroom throughout the legal proceeding. He would be seen starring in his upcoming remake of “ The Day the Earth Stood Still”.
