Proving plagiarism is a tricky business too; but at least you can
find similarities between texts. I have spent quite a long time
studying how to perform semi-automated literary plagiarism
detection. We therefore used several programms to gather pieces
of evidence of similitude, stylistic, grammatical and structural
similarities.

A. Kenny 'The computation of style' discusses the history and applications
of stylometrics in his first chapter. He cites some literature on the
use of the technique in legal cases, though this particualar use is not
his chief concern.
