Britney Spears’ Dad Throws in the Towel

After fighting his daughter’s efforts to end his conservatorship for more than two years, Britney Spears’ dad has finally thrown in the towel.

Jamie Spears on Tuesday filed a petition with Los Angeles Superior Court, requesting that his conservatorship be dissolved, court records reveal. In the paperwork, the elder Spears says his daughter “is entitled to have this court now seriously consider whether this conservatorship is no longer required.”

He goes on to explain the turnaround by saying his daughter’s “circumstances” have changed “to such an extent that grounds for establishment of a conservatorship may no longer exist.”

Claiming her father’s management style was “abusive,” the 39-year-old Britney has attempted to have her father ousted twice in the past two years with no success.

From EW.com:

“This filing represents a massive legal victory for Britney Spears, as well as complete vindication,” Spears’ lawyer Mathew Rosengart told EW in a statement Tuesday evening.
“Having exposed his misconduct and improper plan to hold his daughter hostage by trying to extract a multi-million-dollar settlement, Mr. Spears has now effectively surrendered. There is no settlement.”

Spears has repeatedly asked for her father to be removed from his position, and in her June 23 testimony, the singer said, “My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship and my management who played a huge role in punishing me — ma’am, they should be in jail.”

“To the extent Mr. Spears believes he can try to avoid accountability and justice, including sitting for a sworn deposition and answering other discovery under oath, he is incorrect and our investigation into financial mismanagement and other issues will continue,” Spears’ attorney added

A judge is expected to make a ruling on Jamie Spears’ petition September 29th.
