Jamie’s decision is a huge victory for Britney, who has been under guardianship for 13 years.

However, his lawyer says there is “no real reason to suspend or remove him,” and cites the “public battle with his daughter” as the reason for his resignation. “
“There is, in fact, no real reason to suspend or revoke Mr. Spears as registrar of the estate under Section 2650 of the Succession Code. And it is highly debatable whether a change in conservative right now would be in the best interests, ”court documents say.
He continues: “Nonetheless, even though Mr Spears is the constant target of unwarranted attacks, he does not think a public battle with his daughter over his continued service as a Tory would be in his best interest,” he continues. the folder. “So even though he has to challenge this unwarranted petition for his dismissal, Mr. Spears intends to work with the court and his daughter’s new lawyer to prepare for an orderly transition to a new Tory. As the Court likely assumed, prior to the arrival of Ms Spears ‘new lawyer, Mr Spears had already worked on such a transition with Ms Spears’ former duty counsel, Sam Ingham.

“We are pleased that Mr. Spears and his attorney today admitted in a case that he must be struck off. It’s a justification for Britney. We are, however, disappointed by their continued disgraceful and reprehensible attacks on Ms. Spears and others. We look forward to continuing our thorough investigation into the conduct of Mr. Spears and others over the past 13 years as he raised millions of dollars from his daughter’s estate, and look forward to take Mr. Spears’ affidavit in the near future. “
