SPEARS' DAD FIGHTING TO KEEP CONTROL
LATEST: BRITNEY SPEARS' father JAMIE is attempting to stop the singer's conservatorship case transferring from state to federal court - insisting the attorney seeking the move doesn't even represent the star.
Jamie Spears arrives at UCLA Medical Center to visit his daughter Britney Spears. Los Angeles, California - 02.02.08
In court documents filed Tuesday (19Feb08), Spears' father and Andrew Wallet, the other temporary conservator of her estate, branded lawyer Jon Eardley's efforts to present the case before a federal judge "a brazen - but vain - attempt to strip a probate court of jurisdiction by an attorney without a client".
Last week (14Feb08), Eardley filed a legal complaint in U.S. District Court, arguing the case should be moved from Los Angeles Superior Court to a federal court.
Judge Philip Gutierrez has given Eardley, who has practices in New York and Washington, D.C., until 29 February (08) to prove why the ongoing case of the 26-year-old's estate violates her civil rights.
Michael Sands, Eardley's representative, said on Wednesday (20Feb08) that the judge's forthcoming deadline was a "great opportunity" for Eardley to present his "overwhelming evidence" as to why the case belongs in federal court.
