Britney Spears: judge to consider requests to terminate conservatorship on Wednesday

The high-stakes hearing comes just days after a new documentary alleges that Jamie Spears had his daughter’s conversations monitored

Britney Spears’s conservatorship is heading back to court for a high-stakes hearing on Wednesday, in which a judge will consider requests to remove her father as the authority over her estate and to terminate the legal arrangement altogether.

The closely watched hearing comes days after a new documentary alleged that Britney Spears’s father, Jamie Spears, and a security team he hired monitored the singer’s private communications and secretly recorded her interactions in her bedroom, including conversations with her boyfriend and children.
