Jammie Thomas vs. RIAA Retrial Set to Commence Monday -

The landmark damages would have been the largest fine handed to a single P2P file sharer in U.S. history. Ms. Thomas, however, appealed. Thanks to recent cases that have cast doubt on the legal argument that "making available" is tantamount to infringement -- something the jury was told to be true -- the guilty verdict was thrown out and a retrial was ordered. An attempt by the RIAA to appeal the retrial failed.
That retrial is set to begin Monday. Ms. Thomas's old lawyer, Brian Toder, stepped down in May 2009. She is now represented by Kiwi Camara, an attorney who was the youngest person to matriculate at Harvard Law School.
