Addressing court yesterday, Britney Spears has said that she wants her father Jamie removed as co-conservator and charged with "conservatorship abuse".

On top of this, the pop star made several claims against her father, who has controlled her conservatorship since 2008. 

“I’m here to get rid of my dad and charge him for conservatorship abuse", Britney told the LA court via video link. “I want to press charges for abuse on this conservatorship today… all of it". 

"I did it all and they lied"

Britney claimed that she had to take several psych tests and had blood drawn from her several times a week during her 2008 "Circus" Tour. 

“I did it all and they lied…they did nothing", she said.  “They didn’t end it, and I kept working". 

“Instead of trying to investigate my behaviour or my capacity, I want my dad investigated". 

Britney also claimed that she has had her "pink hair pills" and drivers license taken off her during this conservatorship. 

“This conservatorship is literally allowing my dad to rule my life…that is abuse, and we all know it", she said. “I’m angry, and I will go there". 

Following the subsequent resignation of Britney's court appointed attorney, Samuel D Igham, a judge allowed Britney Spears to choose Mathew Rosengart as her lawyer. This was lobbied by Britney Spears' mother Lynne as well as the American Civil Liberties Union and 25 other civil and disability rights organisations. 

Rosengart called from Jamie Spears to step down from the conservatorship. 

“This is not working. What is supposed to be at the heart of this has been lost", he said.

“There is a real question as to why Mr. Spears does not voluntarily step down today,” he continued, “Is he here for financial reasons? Does anybody really believe that Mr. Spears’ involvement is in the best interest of his daughter?".
