Hit Me Baby One More Time – Judge Shoots Down Britney Spears’ Request to Remove Her Father from Her Conservatorship

 

A judge again has shot down Britney Spears’ request to remove her father from her conservatorship.

The star and singer of the hit song – ‘Baby One More Time’ – is in the news again.

Variety reports:

A judge has shot down Britney Spears’ request to have her father removed from her conservatorship — at least for now.

New court documents that were filed by the Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday show that the judge has denied a months-old request by Spears’ attorney, Samuel Ingham III, to remove her father, Jamie Spears, as her sole conservator. These documents are not in direct response to last week’s hearing, where Spears gave an explosive testimony; though Spears delivered a powerful 24-minute statement, the judge cannot make any ruling based on what she said as she still has yet to file a petition to terminate her conservatorship.

“The conservator’s request to suspend James P. Spears immediately upon the appointment of Bessemer Trust Company of California as sole conservator of estate is denied without prejudice,” the court documents filed on Wednesday stated.

The new court filings are another legal setback for the singer, but the judge’s denial is nothing new. Samuel Ingham III had filed the request to remove Spears’ father back in November 2020, stating that his client was “afraid of her father” and would refuse to perform again, if her father continued to be in charge of her career. At that time, Judge Brenda Penny declined to suspend her father from the conservatorship, though she did not rule out future petitions for his removal or suspension. Also, at that time, the judge appointed financial company Bessemer Trust as a co-conservator.

Spears has been in the news for some time – her hit song ‘Baby One More Time’ is from 1999.  Here it is one more time.
