Spears’ attorney, Matthew Rosengart, would only say that the agreement had given his client the “freedom” that “she desired”. “She will no longer need to be involved with court or entangled with legal proceedings in this matter,” Rosengart added.that his client was “thrilled that this is all over”.
“I begged the court to appoint literally anyone else – and I mean anyone off the street would have been better” for the job of conservator, Spears wrote in her memoir, asSpears’ memoir also explained how “the conservatorship stripped me of my womanhood made me into a child”. “I became more of an entity than a person onstage,” said Spears, who was born in Mississippi and raised in Louisiana. “I had always felt music in my bones and my blood; they stole that from me.”
Despite the eventual end of the conservatorship, there remained unresolved legal battles centering on attorneys’ fees and allegations fromthat Jamie Spears had exploited his role to unjustly enrich himself. Jamie Spears denied wrongdoing, with Weingarten insisting that his client only “wants the best for Britney – nothing less”.
The settlement announced Friday eliminated the possibility of a trial that would rehash the conservatorship in painstaking details while pitting father against daughter in perhaps the most public setting yet.
