Early this month, Miami-based Dilligaf clothing line filed suit against Jersey Shore star Mike “the Situation” Sorrentino, claiming he refused to promote a line the two parties had planned. Now, Sorrentino is countersuing and asserts that Dilligaf (an acronymf or “Do I look like I give a fuck?”) didn’t even have the means to produce the clothing in the first place; ergo he had nothing to promote.
Sorrentino, who has retained the services of Miami-based law firm Ehrenstein Charbonneau Calderin, claims in the suit that Dilligaf never did much to develop the line, which was originally billed as “couture,” besides designing a few T-shirts.
The Sitch’s suit also claims Dilligaf refused to create a website for his line or provide him with any of the clothes to wear. Which, well, by the looks of Dilligaf’s other clothing, he might have dodged a bullet.
His lawyers are demanding a trial by jury to sort the whole thing out.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $18,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
In the meantime, it seems Sorrentino has found a better clothing line partner. He has reportedly landed a six-figure deal to design tuxedos.
