The drama surrounding Britney Spears’ mental health battle and her conservatorship continues to make headlines — here is everything we know

Britney Spear has, unfortunately, failed once again to have her father controlling and abusive conservatorship removed after a court ruling in LA.

Spears' attorney will face off with her father's legal team on Wednesday.

Britney Spears on Thursday was seen driving her car near her Los Angeles home, hours after her father Jamie agreed to step down from his role as her conservator.

The Stars Are Blind singer spoke out following Jamie Spears filing court docs that he was leaving the head of the conservatorship.

This week, Judge Brenda Penny denied Ms Spears request to expedite a hearing over whether to remove her father - Jamie Spears - as her estates conservator, angering the #freebritney movement.

James "Jamie" Spears, said in a new court filing that there are “no grounds" for removing him from Britney Spears conservatorship.

Jamie Spears claimed that Britney is so mentally sick that court-appointed professional Jodi Montgomery suggested hospitalizing her on emergency psychiatric hold.

A lawyer for James P. Spears said in court papers that Mr. Spears loves his daughter and that he is not to blame for some of the actions to which she has objected.

Britney Spears' father, Jamie Spears, rejected the assertion that he should be removed as conservator of his daughter's estate and cited a recent "plea for help" regarding his daughter's mental health.
