In a declaration filed in the Britney Spears conservatorship case, a lawyer for the conservators – Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, and his attorney, Andrew Wallet – accused Sam Lutfi of demanding money from poor Britney.
Attorney Jeryll Cohen wrote:
“During the phone conversation, Mr. [Howard] Grossman [Britney’s business manager] told me that he had numerous e-mails from Osama (Sam) Lutfi in which Mr. Lutfi made various demands, including demands for money. Mr. Grossman told me he did not comply with Mr. Lutfi’s demands.”
Cohen and other lawyers on the side of Jamie Spears have formally asked the court commissioner to let the conservators fire Howard Grossman, in part because they say he refused to provide copies of Sam Lutfi’s e-mails to them.
Sam Lutfi reportedly demanded cash from Britney Spears.
Lawyers for the conservators accuse Grossman of ignoring their rules.
One lawyer wrote in a declaration that she told Grossman “he was not permitted to give Britney Spears any money, credit cards or access to money or credit cards or to meet with her … at the Beverly Hills Hotel or anywhere else.”
The lawyer claims Grossman defied the order by meeting Britney at that very hotel last week. Cohen is pissed because Grossman also directed Beverly Hills Mercedes to deliver one of Britney Spears‘ cars to her fave hotel.
Without, of course, first getting the conservators’ permission.
Cohen says Howard Grossman’s lame excuse was that “he wanted to build her [Brit’s] confidence in him.” Enjoy the pink slip, Howard.
Sam Lutfi, who was hit with a restraining order barring him from contact with Britney, was seen partying over the weekend with Alli Sims.
