This represented a "260% increase from the amount it would otherwise have been entitled to receive for the year." Jamie agreed to pay Lou Taylor the money "without any apparent legal obligation to do so," according to the filing. 

Jamie also allegedly used funds from Britney's estate to pay for ads for Tri Star. And paid for Taylor's attempt to take legal action against a #FreeBritney supporter in 2019.

According to the records, internal emails allegedly reveal that Jamie's own lawyer, at the time, was claiming that Taylor's lawsuit was actually "about Lou," with "no connection" to Britney. And determined that Taylor should be responsible for the legal fees.

Taylor resigned from her role with Spears' team in November 2020. And she said she was receiving death threats following media attention on the estate.

Additional fees paid to Tri Star may have been included in the "General Administration Expenses" portion of the accounting reports. The 2019 version of the report shows that the Estate paid out nearly $7.8 million in such expenses, but only about $29,000 are identified in the non-redacted portions.

Many of the key players in the #FreeBritney movement have claimed that Lou Taylor was the architect and primary person who benefited.

Britney Spears Legal Team on the offensive

The filings from Rosengart and the Britney Spears legal team are an attempt to prevent the estate paying out Jamie’s demand for financial assistance and legal fees. Requests Rosengart previously called "an abomination."

 And they are alleging that Jamie, Lou and others committed multiple financial and personal wrong doings that may have even been criminal during the conservatorship and beyond.

Britney's legal team seeks all documents relating to communications between Jamie and any representative of Tri Star, including Lou Taylor. They are requesting all correspondence, including texts, relating to Jamie’s personal relationship with Taylor. 

He also referred to a New York Times report claiming Britney’s phone and bedroom were bugged. It has been alleged that all her interactions and conversations were monitored. This includes those with her boyfriend, sons and her previous court appointed attorney.

Rosengart called Jamie’s service “abusive,” “toxic” and “cruel.” And he has issued statements for months that the estate was being dissipated not enriched by the conservatorship.
