What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Iowa
My father in law received a letter from Mediacom (his ISP) regarding the downloading of a copyrighted film.
It basically states that Mediacom has received a subpoena requiring them to disclose his name address and other information pursuant to a court order in a civil lawsuit for the southern district of Iowa.
I was the one that downloaded the film whilst I was visiting his home but aparently that doesn't matter because the acount holder is responsible.
It says he hasn't been charged with a crime but the plaintiff is undoubtedly seeking monetary damages from him.
My question is really how much monetery damages are we likely to be looking at. I can enclose other details if need be.
I downloaded it from my laptop not his and used the bittorrent protocol.
Thankyou
