Jamie Spears -- who was suspended in Sept. by a judge from his daughter's conservatorship -- has filed new legal documents, requesting Britney pay his legal fees.
“Jamie stepped up to protect his daughter in 2008 and stepped into the role of Co-Conservator when Britney was unquestionably incapacitated and victimized by persons seeking to take advantage of her incapacity,” the filing reads, continuing to state that he “dedicated himself to protecting his daughter’s health and her estate as he has done her whole life while keeping opportunistic and wholly self-interested parties at bay.
“It would be contrary to public policy if Jamie’s years of dedication to protect his daughter…could subject him to personal bankruptcy and ruin defending baseless claims,” the filing reads. “No person would ever want to step into the role as conservator if a conservatee could force a conservator to personally pay substantial legal fees defending unfounded allegations.”
The star’s attorney, Mathew Rosengart, has raised questions about the financial management of his famous client’s estate. In response to the filing on Monday, Rosengart called the elder Spears’ request to have his daughter pay his legal fees an “abomination.” “Mr. Spears reaped many millions of dollars from Britney as a conservator, while paying his lawyers millions more, all from Britney’s work and hard earned money. The conservatorship has been terminated and Mr. Spears was suspended ignominiously,” Rosengart says in a statement to. “Under the circumstances, his petition is not only legally meritless, it is an abomination. This is not what a father who loves his daughter does.”, after more than 13 years.
