In terms of applicable law, the best way to understand Tor is to consider it a

network of routers operating as common carriers, much like the Internet

backbone. However, unlike the Internet backbone routers, Tor routers
|

explicitly do not contain identifiable routing information about the source of

a packet, and no single Tor node can determine both the origin and destination

As such, there is little the operator of this router can do to help you track

the connection further. This router maintains no logs of any of the Tor

traffic, so there is little that can be done to trace either legitimate or

illegitimate traffic (or to filter one from the other). Attempts to
