Britney Spears: Her father’s lawyer follows up

New details on the legal mud fight between Britney Spears (40) and her father Jamie (69). , in which Jamie’s lawyer attempts to refute objections to Britney’s testimony in court.

Jamie Spears wants to take the singer to court for allegedly defaming him on social media. In November 2021, a court had lifted his guardianship over his daughter, which had previously existed since 2008.

“Britney’s attorney claims that she is exempt from the duty to disclose her allegations of wrongdoing,” Jamie Spears’ attorney Alex Weingarten wrote, according to People. “But Jamie has the right to prepare his case and to interview Britney as she is the one making unsubstantiated allegations against him,” it said.

Weingarten said Britney’s representatives objected to her testimony because it could cover “emotionally difficult issues.” But it is precisely these sensitive points that the singer addressed in her post on social media, according to Weingarten’s argument.

“She just thinks she can say whatever she wants in court and on social media.”

Weingarten wants to clarify in court whether Britney Spears is telling the truth in her public statements. There are two possibilities. Either the 40-year-old has “the knowledge of her allegations that she claims to have in the court filings and on social media,” or she has “no such knowledge or support and simply believes she is in court and on social media.” can say whatever she wants, regardless of whether her allegations are true.”

Britney Spears accuses her father of causing her “psychological harm”. “He ruined the very core of my existence,” she wrote via Instagram in May. He forced her to undergo therapy and forbade her to take painkillers. She has since deactivated her account on the platform.
