"Jersey Shore star Mike &amp;#039;The Situation&amp;#039; Sorrentino has filed a trademark infringement lawsuit against Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch. The lawsuit comes three months after Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch announced that it had made The Situation a financial offer to stop wearing the brand&amp;#039;s clothing. The Situation called Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch&amp;#039;s offer a publicity stunt, and later instructed his lawyers to pursue legal action against the retailer. Attorneys for the reality star have now officially filed a suit against Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch in a Florida court and are seeking $4m (\u00C2\u00A32.5m) in damages, according to documents obtained by TMZ. The Situation alleges that the clothing company violated his trademarks by releasing T-shirts emblazoned with the phrases &amp;#039;The Fitchuation&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;GTL\u00E2\u20AC\u00A6 You Know The Deal&amp;#039;, which parody Sorrentino&amp;#039;s popular slogans. Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch has not yet responded to the suit. This week, actress Chloe Sevigny objected to Abercrombie &amp;amp; Fitch&amp;#039;s request for The Situation to refrain from wearing its clothing and invited Jersey Shore&amp;#039;s stars to try out her Opening Ceremony fashion line. Jersey Shore returns for a fifth season in 2012 on MTV. &amp;gt; Jersey Shore star The Situation to guest in &amp;#039;Suburgatory&amp;#039; &amp;gt; Snooki: &amp;#039;Jersey Shore shows me at my worst&amp;#039; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
