Britney Spears’ father granted permanent control

Britney Spears’ father has been granted permanent legal control of his daughter, a Los Angeles court has ruled. Jamie Spears was handed conservatorship of Britney’s affairs in February after Britney had twice been forced to attend hospital. “The court finds the proposed permanent conservatorship is necessary and appropriate,” Samuel Ingham, Spears' court-appointed attorney, told the Los Angeles Superior Court. “I've met several times with [Britney] and she requested that I not object to the permanent conservatorship," he said. Legal experts have said that permanent won’t necessarily mean forever though. “People shouldn't read too much into the word permanent,” Mental health lawyer Terry K Wasserman told People magazine. “In many cases, it's just a formality to avoid having to renew a temporary status over and over again. Ms Spears can regain control of her life anytime as long as her doctors feel she's able to manage her own affairs."
