Jersey Shore Suit Claims Producers Profited From Fights

A New Jersey judge has agreed to hear a suit against the producers of MTV's hit show Jersey Shore, which claims castmembers deliberately provoked fights in order for producers to profit from the “criminal enterprise.”

An attorney filed suit in March seeking damages on behalf of three clients who were involved in fights with the show's Ronnie Magro.

A judge refused a motion to dismiss the claim that the defendants violated New Jersey's racketeering statute on Friday, reports The AP.
