An Oregon federal magistrate has awarded nearly $108,000 to a Beaverton single mother who said the recording industry falsely accused her of illegally downloading music.
The money represents Tanya Andersen's attorney fees and costs in successfully fighting a lawsuit filed by the recording industry against her.
The attorney fee award is separate from a national class action lawsuit Andersen filed against the recording industry last year. --

As well they should have. Do you work for free? I was just correcting the implication in the BBR summary that SHE got the money in a lawsuit she won. Which clearly wasn't the case.
And I am retired and don't work at all - except on my golf game.
