Britney Spears’ dad Jamie agrees to step down as her conservator

Britney Spears’ father on Thursday agreed to step down as co-conservator of his daughter’s multimillion-dollar estate — a major win for the pop star, who had been battling to boot her dad from her affairs.

Even as he argued that there were no “actual grounds for suspending or removing” him from his daughter’s conservatorship, Jamie Spears acknowledged in a court filing it would be in his best interest to step down.

“Nevertheless, even as Mr. Spears is the unremitting target of unjustified attacks, he does not believe that a public battle with his daughter over his continuing service as her conservator would be in her best interests,” the filing Los Angeles Superior Court states.

“So, even though he must contest this unjustified Petition for his removal, Mr. Spears intends to work with the Court and his daughter’s new attorney to prepare for an orderly transition to a new conservator.”
