Is Britney Spears free of her conservatorship?

In September 2021, Britney's case returned to a Los Angeles courtroom where Judge Brenda Penny made a number of bombshell rulings, following her father's decision to end the conservatorship the month prior.

She ruled to rid Jamie of his daughter's conservatorship, however, it did not mean the end of the conservatorship altogether.

Speaking in court, Judge Brenda Penny said: "Based on what I read in the filings, and I read everything. I do believe the suspension of Jamie Spears is in the best interest of Britney Spears.

"The current situation is unattainable. The court finds the toxic environment Jamie Spears has created needs to be removed today."

Following the judge's decision, a temporary conservator was put in Jaime's place for about a month.

In early November 2021, Jamie was back in court filing new legal documents that show he's done fighting.

"Jamie unconditionally loves and supports his daughter. Full stop. As he has done for her entire life, Jamie will do everything he can to protect and care for her. For the last 13 years, that included serving as her Conservator. Now, it means ending her Conservatorship," his attorneys wrote, according to court documents obtained by .

"This conservatorship should end. Now. There is no reason for another second of delay. Jamie is willing to stipulate to the immediate termination of the Conservatorship without reservation or exception," the statement continued.

Jamie had previously demanded $2million in exchange for stepping down but the recent documents show that he is not seeking any further compensation.

The decision came after Britney threatened “lord have mercy on my family’s souls” when talking about giving her first interview regarding her conservatorship “abuse.”

On November 12, Judge Penny ruled in favor of the pop star, removing Jamie from the position of conservator without requiring any further mental examination from Britney.

What did Britney Spears' lawyer say about her father?

Mathew Rosengart slammed her father Jamie’s “shameful attacks” on the pop star.

He also vowed to “continue the investigation into his conduct” after Jamie stepped down as her conservator.

Shortly after Jamie stepped down as the 39-year-old's conservator, Matthew issued a statement to slam the conservator.

The statement reads: "I announced in Court on July 14 that, after 13 years of the status quo, it was time for Mr. Spears to be suspended or removed as conservator and that my firm and I would move aggressively and expeditiously for that outcome."

After stating that his firm filed a petition to have Jamie removed as Britney's conservator 12 days later "based on strong, insurmountable legal grounds," Matthew shared that the request was "supported by the law and all parties involved, including Jodi Montgomery, Britney Spears, and her medical team."

In July 2021, Britney first scored a major victory in her conservatorship battle with her father when she was able to choose her own lawyer for the FIRST time ever.

The Sun confirmed that Judge Penny permitted the hiring of Britney's chosen legal representation, Mathew S. Rosengart, to represent her.

Her newly-appointed attorney filed court documents soon after that requested a CPA named Jason Rubin be appointed the conservatorship of her estate in replace of her dad.

In the documents, the singer called the relationship with her father "venomous" and "it impairs Ms. Spears's mental health, her well-being, and her ability to pursue and continue with her extraordinary career.”

The docs also call her dad's control on her life "traumatizing, insane and depressing."
