Britney Spears’ mother gives her voice to support the fate of the pop star to “handpick” a new lawyer and end her “abusive” conservatorship.
In a new court filing, Britney’s mom Lynne Spears says the “Toxic” singer has made incredible strides since she was placed in a “unique” conservatorship while receiving treatment on an involuntary basis at UCLA Medical Center in 2008.

In an astounding statement to a Los Angeles judge last month, Britney Spears exploded her 13-year conservatorship and said she wants it to end immediately without any further assessment.
She claimed her handlers made her work long stretches without adequate break time, forced her to take medication that made her feel “drunk,” wouldn’t allow her to remove an IUD to have another baby and kept her father in charge of her finances against her explicit wishes.
The “Circus” singer, 39, said while she had grown closer to her court-appointed lawyer Sam Ingham and spoke to him three times a week, she was denied the chance to choose her own counsel.
The next hearing in the case is set for July 14.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny is expected to consider multiple matters including Ingham’s request to resign as the singer’s lawyer.

Ingham submitted his resignation letter in a court filing Tuesday, saying he would like to be relieved as soon as the court appoints new counsel to replace him.
