The legal battle between George Hotz and Sony is just beginning to heat up. Hotz filed his defense with the Court today, in which he rebuttals several of Sony’s claims. Of note: Hotz points out that he never accepted any form of payment through Paypal related to his PS3 hacking efforts. Additionally, he alleges no association or involvement with the fail0verflow hacking team.

You can grab a copy of Hotz’s defense filing here.

Sony, for its part, also filed another set of documents tonight. The filings contain various pieces of “evidence,” ranging from a forum post containing regurgitated IRC logs to Twitter tweets and snapshots of GitHub repositories.

Kudos to NeoGAF member sangreal for obtaining the latest round of filings through PACER.
