Jamie has been the conservator of Britney’s estate for 13 years. Both him and Rosengart previouslypetitioned to end Britney’s conservatorship, each claiming that it no longer served a purpose and should be terminated immediately.
While Rosengart pushed to have Jamie suspended, Britney’s dad asked the court that he be allowed to step down instead. Just days before he was suspended, Jamie requested that Britney’s petition for a temporary conservator be denied, in part because he and his legal team expected the conservatorship to end soon.
Vivian Thoreen, Jamie’s attorney, said in court on Wednesday that her client “has not talked to his daughter in many months, but he’d love to. … Everything Jamie has done is in [Britney’s] best interest.”
