Overview

• On July 30, T.I.’s lawyers filed a formal response contending that “Situationships” is too generic to qualify for trademark protection.
• The response asserts that Senii lacks exclusive rights to the title and argues that the lawsuit should be heard in Georgia due to the parties’ connections there.
• Senii first introduced her “Situationships” web series in 2016 and holds the registered trademark for the brand.
• Her June lawsuit accuses T.I. and Grand Hustle Films of trademark infringement, unfair competition and civil conspiracy while seeking damages and an order to block the film’s release under the contested title.
• Separately, T.I. and Tiny Harris are preparing for a retrial in their $71 million dispute with MGA Entertainment over its “O.M.G.” dolls line.
