The following italicized article is from www.tmz.com:
Britney Spears will be appearing in a Los Angeles arena and, if a certain lawyer has it his way, an L.A. County courtroom.
Jon Eardley, Esq., the lawyer who claims Britney hired him to torpedo her conservatorship, has just filed legal papers demanding that Brit appear at a trial in which Eardley has been accused of harassing Britney and her family.
In his legal papers, Eardley notes that Britney will be performing at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on April 16 and 17. He says if she's well enough to perform, she's well enough to testify on two points -- did she authorize Eardley to take legal action on her behalf and did Eardley really cause her "substantial emotional distress."
The judge will have to decide if Britney is competent enough to testify and if it's fair to drag her into court. It would certainly be entertaining.

Britney Spears' Fans Cause Highway Stir In Cottonwood
The following italicized article is from www.redding.com:
Britney Spears’ tour bus passed through the north state on Interstate 5 this morning, and even just passing through, the pop star’s presence caused a stir with her fans.
So much so, that a motorist called 911 around 9:40 a.m. to report her entourage was being harassed by three people in a car, said Kurt Heuer, a spokesman for the California Highway Patrol.
The tour bus reportedly was heading southbound near Bowman Road in the Cottonwood area, when it was approached by three young women or girls who tried to get the 27-year-old singer’s attention.
“Apparently it was just some people who wanted to say hi to Britney, if it was even her,” Heuer said.
The tour bus didn’t stop, so it’s unknown if Spears was even on the bus, Heuer said.
Spears performed on Wednesday in Vancouver, Canada and has a performance scheduled at ARCO Arena in Sacramento on Saturday night, according to her Web site publicizing her current tour called “The Circus.”
Heuer said Spears’ fans weren’t cited, but officers warned them to leave her alone.
