Britney's Father Gets Extension on Conservatorship

The following italicized article is taken from www.ok-magazine.com:

As reported by OK! last night, Jamie Spears, father of recently hospitalized pop star Britney Spears, went into court today to ask the judge to extend his conservatorship over his daughter.

The conservatorship, which was granted to Jamie and court-appointed attorney Andrew Wallet following Brit's Jan. 31 hospitalization, gives the singer's father ultimate authority over her financial and medical decision-making.

On Feb. 4, this order was extended until today, at which point the court will need to decide whether or not Brit is yet capable of controlling her own life.

After court-appointed overseer, lawyer Sam Ingham told the judge that he has not been able to complete a full and proper psychological evaluation of Britney, Judge Reva Goetz ordered that the conservatorship be extended again until March 10, at which point another hearing will be held to determine its status.

Additionally, two new lawyers were appointed as Britney's trustees, replacing her business manager Howard Grossman.

In the matter of the restraining order on Brit's former constant companion Sam Lutfi, a court investigator said that, despite 200 man hours spent in the attempt, Sam has still not been served the order in person. Judge Goetz stated that she will extend the order on Feb. 22 if he has still not been served by that point.

Since the court ordered the conservatorship, Brit has been kept on a rather tight leash by her father and has been attempting to get her sidetracked career back on the rails with almost daily dance rehearsals at Millennium Dance Studios.
