Jamie Spears

As previously reported, Britney Spears made an official request on Monday to replace dad Jamie as her conservator.

She and her legal team would like Jason Rubin, a certified public accountant at Certified Strategies Inc., to take Jamie's place.

Britney Spears has made it official.

After testifying multiple times in front of a judge about all the pain her father has caused her... and after speaking in horrifying detail about the conservatorship that has been in place since 2008...

We probably don't need to tell you that Britney Spears has been in the news quite a lot in recent months.

And we probably don't need to tell you that most of the coverage has been quite troubling.

Despite Britney Spears' courageous testimony about her unjust conservatorship, she is still not free.

She described the horrific ways in which her most basic rights and freedoms are curtailed under her father's iron fist.

Despite Britney Spears' courageous testimony, the court has denied Britney's request to remove her father from her conservatorship.

In addition to many financial and personal controls that dictate Britney's life, the most troubling was her forced sterilization.

For weeks, hype has mounted for Britney Spears to testify about her own conservatorship.

Hype may be a strange word to describe a legal hearing, but tell that to the crowds outside of the courthouse.

It's been almost a year since an LA County judge ruled against Britney Spears and determined that there was no clear reason to bring an end to the conservatorship that has placed the singer's father in control of her finances.

To say that a lot has happened in the year that followed would be a massive understatement.

Back in February, a New York Times-produced documentary about Britney Spears shed new light on the pop singer's struggle for freedom.

It earned her thousands of new sympathizers worldwide. But now, a different film about Spears appears to be having the opposite effect.

Many are now familiar with Britney Spears' plight. But did you know that she finances her own captivity?

Britney's awful dad extracts money from her accounts to pay himself and his attorneys who face her in court.

Earlier this year, Jamie Spears lost absolute control over Britney's fortune due to the new co-conservator.

Considering Britney's objections to how he spent her money, that was great news for fans and for Britney.

Last month, Jamie Spears lost absolute control over Britney's fortune and must now share that conservatorship power.

He fought hard against that, insisting that he has always done the right thing with Britney's money.

Since the beginning of this 13-year nightmare of a conservatorship, Jamie has insisted that it's for Britney's own good.

As time has gone by, the world has had a harder and harder time believing that.

Last month, Jamie Spears lost total control of Britney's fortune.

The news was widely celebrated by #FreeBritney supporters.

The #FreeBritney movement was already in full swing before the Framing Britney Spears documentary.

Her plight under her conservatorship has drawn the attention of fans and disability rights advocates alike.

From the Framing Britney Spears documentary to losing in court, Jamie Spears is not having a great month.

It's one thing to have public opinion against him -- he doesn't seem to mind being hated.

The world is more outraged than ever in the wake of the Framing Britney Spears documentary.

This week, Britney Spears once again faced off in court against the iron grasp of her father and the conservatorship.

On Tuesday afternoon, "Thank you, Sam" began trending across social media platforms, and for very good reason:

Britney Spears' hunky boyfriend, Sam Asghari, used his platform to speak out against the pop star's father, Jamie.

As if ruining her family and controlling her life for a dozen years weren't bad enough, Jamie Spears isn't satisfied.

He is refusing to relinquish control of Britney Spears' conservatorship.

Recently, Britney's horrible father Jamie Spears went on a media blitz trying to gain control of the story and end the #FreeBritney movement.

Now, sources close to Britney are shooting down his claims as absurd and hurtful. Jamie has destroyed her family.

Britney Spears just turned 39 earlier this month but she still has less control over her life and fewer freedoms than your average 20-year-old.

She has been fighting for autonomy in court ... but now her father accuses her court-appointed attorney of sabotaging their family relationship for nefarious ends.

More bad news for the perpetually-troubled Britney Spears this week.

Back in August, Britney lost a legal battle against her father, Jamie Spears, when a judge ruled that the conservatorship that allows Jamie nearly complete control over his daughter's life should remain in place until February.

We have all heard about Britney Spears' total lack of freedoms under her father's conservatorship.

She wants his grubby little hands out of her business affairs, and after he hired her a new manager without consulting her, she's asking the court to show him the door.

One of the more compelling dramas of the summer of 2020 concerned Britney Spears' conservatorship and the battle to bring it to an end.

Adherents of the #FreeBritney movement insisted that the pop icon was being exploited by her father and other conservators who have been in charge of her career and many other aspects of her life for over a decade.
