heather Posted July 6, 2021 #1 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Sam Ingham, the lawyer who has represented Britney Spears in her conservatorship, is resigning ... TMZ has learned. We're told Ingham -- who has repped Britney for 13 years -- will file legal docs as early as today ... asking to be dismissed as Britney's court-appointed lawyer. Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ, Ingham is extremely upset at Britney's statement in court ... that she never knew she could end the conservatorship. We're told Ingham regularly gave Britney options, including requesting that the conservatorship should end, but she never wanted to pull the plug. Our sources say Britney did talk to Ingham about removing Jamie, but she never wanted to end the conservatorship. We're told the last straw was when Britney told the judge Ingham never told her what he's legally required to do ... namely inform her of her options. We're told Ingham will not go into detail in his filing, because of attorney/client confidentiality. Ingham will follow Larry Rudolph, Britney's longtime manager, who resigned Monday, saying he was informed Britney was retiring from performing, so there was no reason to continue as her manager. Britney accused Rudolph of forcing her to perform during the 2018 European tour, but as we reported, we're told there were a number of communications, including text messages at the time, in which Britney "begged" to go on the tour. Our sources say there will be more resignations this week as well. We're also told at the next court hearing later this month, members of the conservatorship team will present evidence to the judge disputing many of the things Britney said in court. As you know, Britney says the conservatorship has all but ruined her life. https://www.tmz.com/2021/07/06/sam-ingham-britney-spears-resigning/ Yeah, yeah, yeah. Another one down! The article has been updated to include the official papers! It's great Ingham is gone, but this could be a MAJOR set back if the judge grants his request before the investigation and his desire to hire another court appointed attorney. Let's hope Penny does what's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even bother to comment on the obvious hit pieces coming straight from team con to try and discredit what Britney said. Even if she WAS excited to tour in 2018, she's allowed to change her mind. They aren't allowed to FORCE her to do what she doesn't want to do. I think Loeb & Loeb might take over in the meantime until a new lawyer is chosen. Part of me wonders if Britney already has someone in mind.

If she does, hopefully, it’s a shark cuz she’s gonna need it, she needs someone on par with Jamie’s side. I think it be great if she could reach out to Lisa Maccarley, she would most def. work FOR Britney and would most likely do it for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeMySugarFall Posted July 6, 2021 #5 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 This article is a fucking mess LMAO. Why the hell would Britney lie to the judge knowing that that's her only way out of this mess? And some of the stuff she went into detail on, there have been rumors lurking about for YEARS. Her father is ... something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go back and forth with Lisa because I think she's been a great advocate on Twitter, she still puts people in conservatorships. 35 minutes ago, MakeMySugarFall said: This article is a fucking mess LMAO.

Britney is allowed to change her fucking mind and not want to tour. You making her sign an agreement (something she's not allowed to do, therefor whatever she signed would have been voided anyway) means you were FORCING HER TO TOUR AGAINST WHAT SHE WANTED. Team con is gonna try everything to disprove what Britney said, it's all smoke and mirrors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be surprised if they just create a bunch of evidence just to disprove her, I hope she has her own evidence to present cuz her word prolly won’t be enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edurance Posted July 6, 2021 #9 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 I hope she gets an honest and smart attorney that's all about getting her out of this mess. I'm done with corporate lawyers and firms after her money 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there were photos circulating of her clearly holding phones, but then that Ronan Farrow/Jia Tolentino article made it seem like they keep phones away from her. If that's the case, then how the hell is she texting them this stuff? Like they wouldn't be discussing these things in person because she's a professional and details aren't worked out via text. Their details are inconsistent with non-TMZ reporting and Britney's own mouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all they have is supposed text messages, that's not proof, in ANY court but especially this case with the extenuating circumstances of mystery surrounding Britney's access to a phone. It's he said she said, only one $ide ha$ $omething to gain by lying. And that ain't Brit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
