Judge rules Britney Spears doesn’t have to sit for a deposition by her father’s lawyers

Britney Spears won’t be required to take a deposition by her father’s attorneys in the post-conservatorship period, a court decided on Wednesday. But the senior Spears’ attorney said he will want an appeal review of that and two other judge’s judgments.

Her father’s attorneys want to learn Britney Spears’ opinions on the matter and ask her for any records that could be significant because she is contesting an accounting and costs request.

Judge Brenda Penny of the Los Angeles Superior Court upheld a provisional decision she made on July 13 after concluding that the entertainer’s deposition evidence was unrelated to the details demanded by Jamie Spears’ attorney.

According to the judge, Britney Spears might be questioned in writing and other parties could testify to provide the facts.

Prior to this, the judge had rejected Jamie Spears’ demands for his daughter’s records on the grounds that they weren’t pertinent. The 40-year-old singer’s lawyers utilized Kroll, a private investigation company, to study Jamie Spears’ behavior when he was the co-conservator of his daughter’s financial interests for years. On Wednesday, she also rejected their request to depose an expert who was employed by Kroll.

The three rulings will be appealed, according to Jamie Spears’ attorney Alex Weingarten, who claims his client is legally entitled to the two depositions and the records.

According to Weingarten, Britney Spears’ current situation is a result of her father’s efforts and the 13-year conservatorship.

Weingarten stated that Mr. Spears was pleased of what he had done for his daughter in defending her from svengalis, Rasputins, and other dishonest persons.

However, if Jamie Spears truly loves his daughter as he professes, according to Britney Spears’ attorney Mathew Rosengart, he will accept the judge’s decision and move on.

According to Rosengart, who also criticized Weingarten’s assertion that the whole Britney Spears court file would one day be disclosed, the singer’s deposition would merely “re-traumatize her.” The performer’s medical records and other private information would become public following the unsealing, according to Rosengart.
