The judge, Antony Zacaroli, concluded there was no evidence that Sheeran had thought of writing the hit before October 2016. Sheeran had faced lengthy questioning about his work during last month's trial, with accusations from the lawyer for Chokri and O'Donoghue that he simply altered other artists' music and words to pass their work off as his own.
