And it is highly debatable whether a change in conservator at this time would be in Ms. Spears\u2019 best interests,\u201d the document says, according to reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNevertheless, even as Mr. Spears is the unremitting target of unjustified attacks, he does not believe that a public battle with his daughter over his continuing service as her conservator would be in her best interests,\u201d the filing says. \u201cSo even though he must contest this unjustified Petition for his removal, Mr. Spears intends to work with the Court and his daughter\u2019s new attorney to prepare for an orderly transition to a new conservator. As the Court has likely surmised, before Ms. Spears\u2019 new attorney arrived, Mr. Spears had already been working on such a transition with Ms. Spears\u2019 former court-appointed counsel, Sam Ingham.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The court has not yet ruled on Britney\u2019s petition asking that her father be relieved of his duties handling her financial matters, and this filing pre-empts that decision, though it does not admit wrongdoing on the part of Jamie Spears. Day-to-day management of Britney\u2019s estate, including management of alleged medical conditions, has been handled by a separate conservator since 2019, according to the New York Times.<\/p>\n<p>Spears, who maintains that he has not benefitted financially from the conservatorship, appeared to address his daughter directly in his filing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegardless of his formal title, Mr. Spears will always be Ms. Spears\u2019 father, he will always love her unconditionally, and he will always look out for her best interests,\u201d the filing notes.<\/p>\n<p>Through his attorneys, Jamie Spears does, TMZ notes, take the filing as an opportunity to criticize Britney\u2019s mother, Lynn, and says that he was responsible for rescuing Britney when she was in deep distress in crisis, desperately in need of help\u201d in 2008:&nbsp;&nbsp;\u201cNot only was she suffering mentally and emotionally, she was also being manipulated by predators and in financial distress. Mr. Spears came to his daughter\u2019s rescue to protect her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Britney Spears\u2019 has alleged, since at least 2016, that the conservatorship she is under is abusive, and the pop star has routinely claimed that her conservators have forced her to perform and record against her will. In an emotional testimony earlier this year, Spears also claimed that her conservators have made medical decisions for her and that they are preventing her from getting married or having more children.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2021\/music\/news\/britney-spears-father-jamie-spears-quits-conservator-1235040690\/\">statement to Variety Thursday evening<\/a>, Britney Spears\u2019 lawyer celebrated a victory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u201cI announced in Court on July 14 that, after 13 years of the status quo, it was time for Mr. Spears to be suspended or removed as conservator and that my firm and I would move aggressively and expeditiously for that outcome,\u201d Mathew Rosengart said in a statement.&nbsp;\u201cTwelve days later, my firm filed a Petition for Mr. Spears\u2019s suspension and removal based on strong, insurmountable legal grounds, which were unequivocally supported by the law and all parties involved, including Jodi Montgomery, Britney Spears, and her medical team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u201cWe are pleased that Mr. Spears and his lawyer have today conceded in a filing that he must be removed. It is vindication for Britney.&nbsp; We are disappointed, however, by their ongoing shameful and reprehensible attacks on Ms. Spears and others,\u201d he added. \u201cWe look forward to continuing our vigorous investigation into the conduct of Mr. Spears, and others, over the past 13 years, while he reaped millions of dollars from his daughter\u2019s estate, and I look forward to taking Mr. Spears\u2019s sworn deposition in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
