Judge Needs More Time to Review Brit's Case
June 17 2008, Published 12:00 p.m. ET
It was back to court for Britney Spears' camp on Tuesday, where a judge postponed a July hearing to discuss control of the singer's assets.
Commissioner Reva Goetz ruled that the July 31 hearing — which was scheduled to decide whether to end or extend Britney's conservatorship — will instead review matters of evidence in her case, giving attorneys more time to compile information about Brit's affairs.
Goetz also granted the singer's dad and co-conservator, Jamie Spears, permission to sell his daughter's Studio City home.
Following a disastrous split from ex-hubby Kevin Federline, a bitter custody battle over their two sons and an erratic lifestyle that ultimately led to the singer being hospitalized twice for psychiatric evaluations, the court established a conservatorship in February, giving Jamie and attorney Andrew Wallet control over Britney's assets and medical decisions.
