Tanya Andersen, a disabled single mother who was sued in 2005 by the RIAA, went to court to fight the accusations. Forensic researchers were unable to find any trace of illegal downloading on her computer, and both parties have now agreed to a dismissal.

Andersen was essentially exonerated of any wrongdoing and can now ask the court to make the RIAA cover her attorneys’ fees. Meanwhile, she has filed a countersuit against the record industry.
