Britney Spears: Parents Still In Charge

Back when Britney Spears was committed to the UCLA Medical Center for her emotional/mental/bipolar breakdown, her father was named conservator of her estate.

And yesterday the Los Angeles Superior Court granted Jamie Spears an extension of his conservatorship over her until March 10th.

According to her brother Bryan’s attorney, Ivan Taback, "Ms. Spears' family, friends and members of her household have been paying for her basic necessities including medicine, food and other day to day expenses."

And as an update to the Sam Lutfi restraining order process, apparently Sam’s been in hiding, and Jamie and his attorneys have been unable to locate him to serve him with the court order.
