Conservatorship To Last Until December 31st

 POSTED BY Danny

Britney Spears’s father will remain in legal control of his daughter until Dec. 31, a court ruled Thursday.

Jamie Spears, 56, was named temporary conservator of her affairs on Feb. 1 following his 26-year-old daughter’s two forced hospitalizations in January.

“The extension of the conservatorship was at the request and suggestion of Britney’s doctors,” says a source close to the singer. “They’ve indicated she’s made great improvement, but it’s a work in progress. Jamie Spears doesn’t want the conservatorship to last a day longer than the doctors recommend.”

Jamie has sole authority over whom his daughter has contact with, and has hired security guards to watch her 24 hours a day. He shares control with another lawyer over her multimillion-dollar estate.

A progress review of the case was set for Oct. 28.

Earlier Thursday, Spears’s court-appointed attorney, Samuel D. Ingham III, told the Associated Press that he wouldn’t seek to extend the restraining order against the singer’s one-time pal Sam Lutfi, because Spears has cut all ties with Lutfi anyway.

Ingham also said that the restraining order is no longer necessary because Jamie can legally control whom his daughter sees: “During the temporary conservatorship, the conservators have the power to insure that Lutfi will not harm Britney anymore.”

According to TMZ, if all goes well, all parties will be ready to end it on October 31st.  We’ll have to wait and see how long it actually does last for, but for now Jamie is still in control.

This is wonderful news. She has gotten increasingly better under this structure and has seen some stability that she hadn’t had prior to the conservatorship. Dealing with a mental illness is difficult, and with all legal and financial matters being handled by her dad, the girl can focus on one thing and that’s to continue the progress she’s made this far psychologically.

From here on, I would think everyone’s intentions would be to allow Britney more freedom and control over certain matters so that the conservatorship can end with Britney feeling secure enough to handle everything in her life. Excellent and wise decision on everyone’s part to extend it till December. If she feels more secure by Oct. that’s even better. What matters is that the seeds have been planted, so to speak.

She has trustworthy people around her even when jamie will no longer be conservator. Bodyguards,assistant,Larry, etc. I’M SO HAPPY FOR BRIT!!! YOU GO GIRL. :)

Yea its gonna end on da 28th of oct.

***MIMI*** on Friday, August 1, 2008 @ 3:07 am

no, it didn’t change. There will be a scheduled hearing on the 28th of October to see if indeed the conservatorship will extend as had been initially planned till the 31st of December.

The purpose of October 28th is to evaluate the progress Britney has made and then from there to re-assess the necessity of an extension as would be advised by those closest to her: doctors, family, etc..

As i said before, it would be ideal if she has made progress b y Oct. to end the conservatorship. As the comissioner said, the order is subject to early termination, hence the october HEARING.

DIS IS WHAT LADY GAGA SAID ABOUT BRITNEY

You surely earned even more gay fans with the recent announcement that you wrote a track for Britney’s upcoming album. Was that a dream come true?

Yeah. I was working with Rodney Jerkins on Pussycat Dolls, and we wrote this song—I almost slipped and told you the name. Thank God I caught myself; I respect her a lot, so I was to give her control over that. When we were done with the song, I was like, “Oh, I want to sing it,” but my album was already closed. It never even crossed my mind that she was doing a new record. Then Rodney played it for [Britney’s manager] Larry Rudolph, who was in the studio. Rodney called me later and was like, “Britney’s people are freaking out about this song.” Ultimately, she makes the decisions, so when I found out that she loved it and was going to record it, it was amazing. I actually heard it yesterday with her on it for the first time, and I really had chills.

It hasnt been confirmed if da song is gonna be on her album, but she did already record da song, but things can change. Who knows!!!
