Britney Spears Scores Legal Victory as She’s Approved to Hire Her Own Lawyer

News

Jodi’s lawyer told E! News in a statement on July 6 that the manager “remains committed to steadfastly supporting Ms. Spears” in her personal affairs. The statement read, “Ms. Montgomery will continue to serve as a conservator for as long as Ms. Spears and the Court desire her to do so.” 

On July 14, Britney said that if she can’t terminate the conservatorship altogether, she wants Jodi to stay on and help her as long as Jamie is removed.

The conservator of the person would oversee her security guards and other caretakers; restrict and limit guests (except for her lawyer); plan security and locations for those meetings; communicate with medical professionals about her health and be granted access to her medical records, according to Sam’s March 22 petition.

For his part, Jamie requested further investigation into the conservatorship to get to the truth behind the allegations Britney made during her testimony last month. His June 29 court filing explained that he is “concerned about the management and care of his daughter” and wants the court to “investigate the veracity of the allegations and claims” his daughter made. 

During last month’s explosive testimony, she said her dad holds a significant amount of “control” over her, saying, “My precious body has worked for my dad for the past f–king 13 years, trying to be so good and pretty.” She asked for the “abusive” conservatorship to end without further evaluation. 

E! News has reached out to Jamie’s attorney for comment.
