Britney’s attorney Mathew S. Rosengart said in a court filing Monday that she agrees with Jamie Spears that her conservatorship should end. The conservatorship, with her dad at the helm, has controlled her entire life since 2008.
After fighting for years to keep Britney Spears’s conservatorship in place, her father, Jamie unexpectedly asked the court to terminate on Sept. 7th.
The filing in Los Angeles Superior Court says she “fully consents” to “expeditiously” ending the conservatorship. And acknowledges her father finally asked for it to end in his Sept. 7th petition.
Jamie Spears’s abrupt request to end the conservatorship may have been prompted by Britney’s attorney’s requests for formal discovery and Jamie’s sworn deposition.
Rosengart, a former federal prosecutor, was hired in July when the court allowed the superstar to hire her own lawyer. This was the first time she was allowed to hire her own representative. The conservatorship has been in-place since 2008 amid concerns regarding Britney’s mental health and possible substance use.
Discovery requests for 13 years of information
In the newest court filing, Britney joins in asking for the conservatorship to end. Mathew Rosengart requests extensive information about the role of the pop star’s former business manager.
