Britney Spears' lawyer has filed a petition asking the court to deny Lynne Spears' request that the pop singer pay for the attorney fees she accumulated while trying to help free her daughter from her conservatorship.According to legal documents, obtained by ET, Britney's lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, argues that the singer should not have to pay for Lynne's $663,202 legal bill because «first, and most fundamentally, there is no legal authority supporting the petition.» Rosengart explains that the petition cites «no authority  to support the conclusion that a conservatorship estate can be held financially responsible for the attorney's fees » like Lynne.Lynne filed her petition back in November, and in those legal documents, she claimed that she hired the firm Jones Swanson Huddell & Garrison LLC in 2019 to see «what they could do to get involved to help Britney free herself from what she saw was a very controlling existence,» and to «achieve independence from her conservator father Jamie Spears.» The conservatorship was terminated back in November after 13 years.Britney's lawyer, however, says that while Lynne «had the right to hire and pay, from her own funds, this is, in effect, an issue between Lynne Spears and her lawyers, and there is no legal basis for placing Britney Spears in the middle of it.»In the docs, Britney's lawyer claims the singer «has for decades been her family's sole breadwinner, supporting her entire family.» And, to that point, the «Toxic» singer's lawyer says that if Britney «were to voluntarily agree that Lynne Spears should receive an additional payment from her, that would be her choice» but that Lynne's request «is entirely unsupported by law or equity and must be rejected for these reasons

Britney Spears is giving us a little taste of what’s to come in her memoir!

Britney Spears has confirmed she has a memoir on the way. On Monday, the singer shared screenshots of her notes on Instagram, where she called the process, “healing and therapeutic.” She also mentioned her ex, Justin Timberlake, before sharing a couple of stories about her past.In late February, Page Six revealed that Britney sealed a multi-million dollar book deal that is said to be worth as much as $15 million.

Britney Spears has said that writing her memoir is “healing and therapeutic”.In a since-deleted Instagram post to fans, the pop star said that addressing her past is “hard” but suggested that her efforts will be worth it.“I’m writing a book at the moment and as it’s actually healing and therapeutic…it’s also hard bringing up past events in my life…I’ve never been able to express openly,” she wrote.“I can only imagine that I do sound childish but I was extremely young when those events took place…and addressing it now… I’m sure it seems irrelevant to most and I’m completely aware of that!”[via Billboard].Elsewhere in the post Spears criticised the memoirs written by her mother, Lynne Spears, and her younger sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, at a time when she “couldn’t even get a cup of coffee or drive [her] car or really anything” due to the legal conservatorship that controlled every aspect of her life for thirteen years.“I’m not the type of person to bring up UNCOMFORTABLE CONVERSATIONS,” Spears continued, “but come on LET’S ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT IT…Why do I say this? Well because I never felt heard ever! I was screaming inside and no matter what I said it was always looked down on.She concluded with another reference to Jamie Lynn and her Things I Should Have Said, writing: “So sorry if I’ve offended anyone by writing these stories…but just as my sister can legally mention my name in her book over 200 times…cry on TV…and get a heartfelt ‘awww’ from most…I also have the right to share a couple of paragraphs on my Instagram.”Spears’ fiancé Sam Asghari commented on the post: “I’m buying the first copy.”According to Variety, publisher Simon & Schuster agreed on a “record-breaking” deal in February with Spears that will see it
