Fans of early 2000s pop star Britney Spears were pleased with the recent news that her father, James Spears, will soon be stepping down from his role in her conservatorship. This came following a long legal battle spurred by the “#FreeBritney” movement. Long-time followers of Spears grew more and more concerned with the singer’s behavior as people questioned the legality of her situation. James Spears has stated that his departure will come only after other concerns are resolved. 

“Mr. Spears is willing to step down when the time is right, but the transition needs to be orderly and include a resolution of matters pending before the Court,” said the legal filing for this case. James Spears has not definitively stated when he will be stepping down, leading some to believe that he does not have plans to end any time soon, but this is all speculation.

Britney Spears and her lawyer maintain that this court case is good for the former pop star. Her lawyer, Matthew Rosengart has been working with her as the case progresses. Fans of Spears hope this case can end as soon as possible and restore her finances and schedule to her.

“We are pleased that Mr. Spears and his lawyer have today conceded in a filing that he must be removed,” said Rosengart. Britney fans and supporters agree with this statement, with many posting about their excitement with this decision made by James Spears.
