Sam Lutfi wants out of the increasingly harsh limelight for awhile.
A court commissioner signed off Monday on the agreement his camp brokered last week with Britney Spears' family to extend the temporary restraining order against him for another month.
"He respects Britney, he respects the temporary restraining order and everyone is beating him up for no reason," Lutfi's rep, Michael Sands, said after the hearing. "Enough is enough."
Lutfi, who dodged process servers for several weeks after the order was first granted to Jamie and Lynne Spears on Feb. 1, will continue to stay at least 250 yards away from Britney and any property she owns until Apr. 16.
A federal judge had previously extended the order on Feb. 21, the day Lutfi was finally served.
The singer's erstwhile BFF has been the target of serious accusations from Britney's parents since her Jan. 31 hospitalization at UCLA Medical Center.
Lynne Spears has alleged that Lutfi drugged Britney by adding crushed, unspecified pills into her food, an issue the Los Angeles Police Department has taken into consideration for a formal investigation. Jamie Spears' attorneys have stated in court documents that his daughter's pal hit up her since-fired business manager, Howard Grossman, for money.
Lutfi admitted to giving Britney a handful of pills on Jan. 30, claiming that they "worked wonders" on the troubled songstress, who sources said wasn't sleeping and was displaying erratic, anxious behavior in the days leading up to her week-long stay at UCLA.
Britney's medical issues and finances were also discussed Monday, albeit in a closed courtroom.
"Orders were submitted and will be considered about her medical condition, but privacy issues require these remain sealed," Superior Court spokesman Allan Parachini told E! News.
A hearing on the 730 psych evaluation Goetz ordered to help determine Britney's ability to make decisions that are currently under the control of her coconservators has been scheduled for Apr. 17, the day after the court is set to revisit the Lutfi affair.
