Lynne Petitions for Britney to Hire Her Own Lawyer - and more

Recommended Posts

One step closer? Britney Spears‘ mother, Lynne Spears, is seemingly taking charge after the pop star’s court-appointed lawyer, Samuel Ingham III, stepped down after 13 years.

In documents obtained by Us Weekly on Wednesday, July 7, the Through the Storm author, 66, petitioned to allow Britney, 39, to choose her own attorney, rather than being assigned a new one by the court.

“Now, and for the past many years, [Britney] is able to care for her person and in fact has, inside of the parameters of this conservatorship, earned literally hundreds of millions of dollars as an international celebrity,” the filing stated, outlining the long hours of rehearsals and work that went into Britney’s performances. “Her capacity is certainly different today than it was in 2008, and [Britney] should no longer be held to the 2008 standard, whereby she was found to ‘not have the capacity to retain counsel.'”

Lynne argued that her daughter “has had to perform in front of millions of people, has had to manage hundreds of performances, has had to use her artistic and creative talents to prepare for shows by choreographing each and every move for and interacting with many co-performers, and has had to rehearse and perform for many thousands of hours over the years,” all of which pointed toward her being in a much different place than she was when the “unique conservatorship” was put into effect 13 years ago.

Among the “Toxic” singer’s shocking revelations was the news that she’s unable to have her IUD removed without permission from her conservatorship team. In her filing, Lynne reiterated her daughter’s requests, including “that she be allowed to her own money,” “that she be allowed to handpick her own lawyer by herself,” “that she be allowed to see her friends,” and “that she be allowed to have her IUD removed” so she can “get married and have a baby.”
