Ok seems no one knows the answer to my question but I have found the answer
and it's quite clear and simple.
(2)
A plaintiff is not entitled by virtue of this section to any damages or to
any other pecuniary remedy, other than costs, if it is established that, at
the time of the conversion or detention:
(a)
the defendant was not aware, and had no reasonable grounds for suspecting,
that copyright subsisted in the work or other subject-matter to which the
action relates;
(b)
where the articles converted or detained were infringing copies-the
defendant believed, and had reasonable grounds for believing, that they were
not infringing copies; or
(c)
where an article converted or detained was a device used or intended to be
used for making articles-the defendant believed, and had reasonable grounds
for believing, that the articles so made or intended to be made were not or
would not be, as the case may be, infringing copies.
This is why he will not win, He by giving those objects to FriendPA and
allowing her to use them on her world meant that he gave her the right to
use those pbjects and to copy them. So it says here, the person would have
to commit copyright infringement and be aware of the infringement for him to
collect lots of damages. Here it states if the person is unaware of any
infringement of the copyright then read (c) Justin will never get past (c)
he allowed her to use them which means she was not aware or was there ever a
contract made or license that stated how she could use them, he in essence
gave her full right with no limitations to the copyright of the objects by
allowing her to upload the objects to her path.
