I can't find any evidence for this on the <

documents in Atlantic V. Howell. Please provide a link.
Note that the court found that Howell had a "right to use for personal
enjoyment copyrighted works on CDs he purchased":

Note that the court found "Howell’s final contention is that a
computer malfunction or a third party put his personal files into his
shared folder. However, no evidence has been presented in support of
that scenario." It seems clear that Howell couldn't present any
evidence that the files got in his Kazaa shared folder other than by
his putting them there and the court clearly didn't believe his
'malfunction or third party' contention.
As far as I can tell, the documents are all there for anybody to
review and this is a very pedestrian case of a guy who used Kazaa and
got caught.
