BREAKING: Jamie Spears has been immediately suspended from Britney Spears' conservatorship. #FreeBritney bit.ly/3umrh3s

After a legal battle that has persisted since Spears was placed under the court-ordered arrangement in 2008, Judge Brenda Penny ruled that Spears’ father will no longer serve as conservator of his daughter’s estate, immediately removing him altogether. bit.ly/3umrh3s

CPA John Zabel will temporarily replace Spears’ father in the role of conservator of her estate, meaning he will now control all of her financial decisions, for a short term, until next steps are determined, in regards to terminating the conservatorship. bit.ly/3umrh3s

Spears’ conservator of her person, Jodi Montgomery, who manages her day-to-day wellbeing and medical decisions, still remains on the case. bit.ly/3umrh3s

No decision was made on the fate of the conservatorship altogether, which Spears’ attorney, Mathew Rosengart, said should be terminated this fall. Rosengart suggest setting a termination hearing within the next 45 days in either October or November. bit.ly/3umrh3s

Vivian Thoreen, the attorney for Spears’ father, strongly objected to the suspension and called Zabel a “stranger” on the case. bit.ly/3umrh3s
