Restraining Orders
I know, I know. I disappeared there for a while - but I’m back, so let’s catch up on Britney’s special brand of Crazy, hm?
As we mentioned before, Britney’s estate had filed for a restraining order against Osama Lutfi and Adnan Ghlib, which had Lutfi mad enough that he filed a lawsuit against Jamie and Lynne Spears in retaliation. He’s not the only one that went off a little half-cocked either.
The court granted the restraining order, and Britney’s ex, Adnan, in an attempt to resist being served, RAN OVER THE PROCESS SERVER WITH HIS CAR. I know, right? He as charged with assault for that, but then didn’t even bother to fight the restraining order in anyway. It was confirmed that it would remain in place for three years - until March 2012.
So you’d think that’d be the end of it, right? Wrong! This is BritneyLand, bitch! A couple of days ago an answering machine message surfaced that allegedly is from Britney to another law firm, asking for help to get the conservatorship lifted. It supposedly came in January, nd states that Jamie Spears has been threatening Britney with losing shared custody of her kids. Check it out:
The plot thickens!
Yesterday, the trial continued in the case of the restraining order against Sam Lutfi, and his sister - Christina - took the stand. She had some interesting claims, stating that she’d snuck a pre-paid cell phone to Britney at the singer’s request. Christina said that Britney had told her she wanted to get a hold of Sam. “She wanted him to help her finda lawyer…. she was scared because her father was blackmailing her with visitation rights over her kids.”
Christina stated further that Britney orchastrated a meeting with her at a gym in the Peninsula Hotel on Jan. 16 in the sauna where Christina gave her the phone, saying it was from Osama and Adnan. The phone was later discovered and confiscated by the security team.
The Spears’ legal team, however, maintain that Britney is so afraid of Sam that she asked if Attorney Blair Berk could get him arrested and keep him away. He also says she repeatedly denied seeking outside legal help, and they doubt the recording’s authenticity.
What a tangled mess! The trial continues on April 21st, where the judge will make a decision on the restraining order.
So what do you think? Is Britney chomping at the bit? Is she ready to get out from under her daddy’s thumb or is this more crazy? She’s racking up hundreds of thousands in legal fees, reportedly the figure could be as much as $2.7 million! Daddy’s authority won’t nd though, not until the singer can prove to the court, backed by doctor’s opinions, that she is ready to handle her own affairs. Can’t help but think this testimony is damaging enough that it won’t happen for a while, hm?
