Britney Spears Has Been Robbed?

In a declaration filed last Friday, Jon Eardley contends that the pop star civil rights have been violated, including the right to be heard "as to the desirability" of her father, Jamie Spears, given the co-conservatorship powers on his person and estate. (Jamie, with attorney Andrew Wallet, the powers were granted when Britney was hospitalized on a psychiatric hold for the second time in one month.) Britney Spears had tried to hire a lawyer, Adam Streisand, the fight conservatorship, but he resigned Feb. 7 after approval court ruled that Britney had no direct ability to retain counsel of his choice.

Since then, Eardley claimed to represent Britney Spears. Lawyers for the conservatorship asked him "a lawyer without score, but Eardley is adamant that despite the court's decision that Britney can not hire a lawyer, she did in fact hire Feb. 12, she spoke with The phone him on (until her phone was disconnected and removed), and she allows her allegations, which he filed in part on Friday and plans to continue filing on Monday (February 25). "She is party to this, "said spokesman Michael Eardley Sands, who is also the singer's manager reps occasional Saturday Lutfi." She gave her full authority. "

Eardley seeks to move the conservatorship case to the federal court, and have a deadline of Friday to explain to the court why. In documents filed Friday, Eardley claims that it will provide proof that the court was robbed Britney Spears (proof of which he said he would file under seal Monday), and that he needed more time to meet the court's deadline but was concerned for the "physical and emotional safety of Britney," because in addition to being robbed, it would also be victims of violence.

Jeffrey Wexler, one of the lawyers of the conservatorship, told MTV News: "We believe it would be very inappropriate for us to comment."

Sands said there is an ongoing criminal investigation on the matter, but he refused to say what agency was involved. As a result, he said, his office was broken into and documents were allegedly stolen and / or deleted from his computer. "Lives have been threatened," said Sands. "People are intimidated. C'est terrorism. I do not want to make accusations, but we are talking about funding rape of Britney Spears."

Meanwhile, Britney Spears father is seeking compensation for fighting travel more Eardley case of approval federal court, asking to pay him Eardley (and therefore Britney) for the return of nearly $ 43000 in attorney's fees.
