After over a decade when Britney Spears has been under her father’s conservatorship, Jamie Spears files a petition not to just renounce it, but end it.
It’s been a long battle regarding Britney Spears and her unfair conservatorship. But it looks like the end is getting closer and closer.
Britney has been under conservatorship ever since her breakdown in 2008, and hasn’t managed to get out of it yet. At the beginning of this summer, she finally broke her silence during a year in mid-June.
She formally requested to end the conservatorship, sharing all the horrible things she had to go through.

Now Jamie Spears, her father, and official conservator filed to end the conservatorship. According to CNN, Jamie claims he wants the “best for his daughter,” and “believes she can handle her own life.”
“Recent events related to this conservatorship have called into question whether circumstances have changed to such an extent that grounds for establishment of a conservatorship may no longer exist,” the filing states.
“Ms. Spears has told this Court that she wants control of her life back without the safety rails of a conservatorship. She wants to be able to make decisions regarding her own medical care, deciding when, where and how often to get therapy. She wants to control the money she has made from her career and spend it without supervision or oversight. She wants to be able to get married and have a baby, if she so chooses. In short, she wants to live her life as she chooses without the constraints of a conservator or court proceeding.
“As Mr. Spears has said again and again, all he wants is what is best for his daughter. If Ms. Spears wants to terminate the conservatorship and believes that she can handle her own life, Mr. Spears believes that she should get that chance.”
Mathew Rosengart, attorney for Britney Spears, shared with CNN: “This filing represents another legal victory for Britney Spears — a massive one — as well as vindication for Ms. Spears. It appears that Mr. Spears believes he can try to avoid accountability and justice, including sitting for a sworn deposition and answering other discovery under oath.”
