A judge has rejected Britney Spears' plea to remove herself from her father's conservatorship. Per <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/jul/01/britney-spears-judge-denies-request-to-remove-father-jamie-from-conservatorship" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Guardian</a>, Judge Brenda Penny refused to absolve Jamie Spears from his position as her conservator, despite the <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/britney-spears-says-her-father-should-be-in-jail-at-court-hearing-im-not-here-to-be-anyones-slave" target="_blank" rel="noopener">musician's allegations of sustained abuse on his part</a>. However, court documents filed on Wednesday, June 30, show that Judge Penny agreed to the Bessemer Trust's role as co-conservator of the Spears' multi-million dollar estate. <img class=" wp-image-1263114719" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/06/Britney-FI-Website.jpg" alt="" width="819" height="427" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Alamy / Ovidiu Hrubaru]] Judge Penny also ended a scheme allowing the media to listen to court proceedings remotely, after her testimony leaked to the press. Per the above publication, the documents state: "The conservatee’s request to suspend James P Spears immediately upon the appointment of Bessemer Trust Company Of California, NA as sole conservator of [the] estate is denied without prejudice." The singer's lawyer Samuel D. Ingham III first asked a Los Angeles court to end her father's 13-year-long control of her estate in November of 2020. Jamie Spears assumed full responsibility for his daughter's financial affairs back in 2008 following the star's highly-publicized mental health struggles. <img class=" wp-image-1263113563" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/06/britney_spears-1.jpeg" alt="" width="710" height="370" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Alamy/Abaca Press]] The 39-year-old previously made <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/celebrity/britney-spears-speaks-out-against-abusive-conservatorship-at-hearing-i-want-my-life-back" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a number of disturbing allegations regarding her father's conduct</a> in a virtual court appearance Wednesday, June 23. Spears stated that she had been left traumatized, <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/celebrity/britney-spears-says-she-was-forced-to-take-lithium-as-punishment-which-made-her-feel-drunk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accusing her father of drugging her with lithium</a>, forcing her to work long hours without rest, and denying her the ability to have more children. According to a transcript of her allegations published by <a href="https://variety.com/2021/music/news/britney-spears-full-statement-conservatorship-1235003940/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Variety</a>, Spears stated: "The control he had over someone as powerful as me, as he loved the control to hurt his own daughter 100,000%. He loved it. "I packed my bags and went to that place. I worked seven days a week, no days off, which in California, the only similar thing to this is called sex trafficking." <img class=" wp-image-1263114890" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/06/Britney-FI-Website-1.jpg" alt="" width="731" height="381" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Alamy / ZUMA Press, Inc.]] She added: "I am not happy, I can't sleep. I'm so angry, it's insane. And I'm depressed. The last time I spoke to you [the judge]… made me feel like I was dead. "I am telling you again because I am not lying. So maybe you can understand the depth and the degree and the damages. I deserve changes." In response, Jamie Spears' lawyer told <a href="https://people.com/music/britney-spears-dad-jamie-spears-lawyer-she-can-ask-end-conservatorship-any-time/" rel="nofollow">People</a> magazine: "Britney knows that her daddy loves her and that he will be there for her whenever and if she needs him, just as he always has been - conservatorship or not." <h6>Featured Image Credit: Alamy/Jennifer Graylock</h6>
