Britney Spears’ Father James Spears to Exit Conservatorship, but Departure Not Imminent

News 18  

Britney Spears’ father said in a court filing Thursday that he is planning to step down from the conservatorship that has controlled her life and money for 13 years, but his departure is not imminent. The documents say that James Spears has been “the unremitting target of unjustified attacks” but “he does not believe that a public battle with his daughter over his continuing service as her conservator would be in her best interests.” The filing says James Spears will fight the petition to force him out but will work with the court and Britney Spears’ attorney Matthew Rosengart on the next phases. “In the interim, rather than making false accusations and taking cheap shots at his own daughter, Mr Spears should remain silent and step aside immediately.” Even after James Spears’ departure, the court will maintain the same control over Britney Spears that it has since the conservatorship was put in place in 2008. The new filing adamantly defends the work of James Spears and the conservatorship and pushes back especially against allegations made by Britney Spears’ mother Lynne Spears in a recent declaration. “Mr Spears came to his daughter’s rescue to protect her, and this Court made the determination that the protection provided by a conservatorship was necessary and in Ms Spears’ best interests.” The documents say that Lynne Spears was wrong in criticizing the hiring of a psychiatrist that she said James Spears chose for their daughter, and in saying that medications he prescribed were inappropriate.
