HOME > Jersey Shore 'Jersey Shore' star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro pleads not guilty to assault
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 02/14/2011
Ronald "Ronnie" Ortiz-Magro has pleaded not guilty to an assault charge stemming from a September 2009 fight, which took place during the filming of Jersey Shore's first season.
In addition, the 25-year-old reality TV star may not be able to join the Jersey Shore cast for the show's fourth season that will film in Italy this spring, as the charge might jeopardize his ability to receive an Italian visa.
"Persons who are currently in the criminal process can not by issued a Visa," a spokesperson for the Italian Embassy told RadarOnline last month. "Any person applying for a Visa to Italy must have their case fully adjudicated." The alleged victim, 26-year-old Stephen Izzo, has also reportedly filed a civil lawsuit against Ortiz-Magro, MTV and Jersey Shore's producers. The Superior Court Judge Stephanie Wauters scheduled a pre-trial meeting about the assault charge for March 7.
