Pap Socks It to Britney One More Time

You'd think this guy's rollover minutes would have expired by now.

Shutterbug Ricardo Mendoza, whose foot fell victim to the tire of Britney Spears' Mercedes in 2007, has updated his accusation against the rejuvenated pop princess.

When he sued her for assault, battery and negligence in May, the damages were unspecified. But now, they're specified: Mendoza wants $195,000 in general damages, $16,533.59 for medical bills and $10,000 for any future foot problems.

Mendoza, who was clicking away for TMZ at the time of the incident, let the website auction off the treaded-upon sock he was wearing two years ago, saying that would be that—but apparently it was not.

P.S.: Someone bought that sock, too—for $585! The proceeds were donated to the Children's Defense Fund, so at least some good came out of the whole thing.

Meanwhile, Britney's busy concluding the North American leg of her wildly successful Circus tour. She finishes up in Vegas Saturday and Sunday before heading off to Australia in November.

Britney Custody Order Extended

The following italicized article is from www.tmz.com:

Britney Spears will share 50/50 custody with Kevin Federline at least through the end of the year -- TMZ has learned.

An L.A. County Superior Court judge extended the order that was initially put in place for Britney's concert tour. Under the terms, Britney gets to travel with Sean Preston and Jayden James and must provide K-Fed with a place to stay if he wants to follow them on tour.

Sources tell us the sealed order is very detailed, but Britney gets minimum 50/50 custody and at times even more.

As for Kevin, in addition to the $20,000 a month Britney pays him in child support, he gets between $20,000 and $25,000 a month when the kids are outside of California.

At the end of the year the judge will reevaluate custody. We're told it's looking like a 50/50 split is the way of the future.
