In a Rochester, New York, case, Atlantic v. Dangler, Judge David G. Larimer has denied the RIAA's request for a default judgment, on the ground that the evidence the RIAA presented (a) failed to include any details of any distribution or downloading, and (b) failed to prove that the defendant was properly identified as the individual who had operated the file sharing program:

Fantastic news!

Agreed. This is the second default judgment application rejected. Let's hope it's the beginning of a trend.... actually making them come up with evidence.

Ditto Golgo1, that's why i don't mind reading ArTechnica's 'laymen' articles about these court rulings.
Having said that, the comments section of Ray's site is generall a particularly interesting read as well
