1. Conservatorships are supposed to be a last resort. Less restrictive alternatives are always supposed to be tried before a conservatorship is placed, in order to honor dignity of risk and self determination. No such alternatives were attempted with Britney.

2. Cships can be granted if an individual refuses treatment. Britney willingly went to UCLA for treatment, & while there, her father petitioned the court. Britney should have been able to seek treatment on her terms & w the support of a medial team, not by unnecessary force.

3. Conservatees are supposed to have demonstrated they cannot provide for themselves. Per court monitors in regard to Britney's child custody case, Britney always had food, electricity, and running water in her home.

4. Britney was denied due process. A dr that had never treated B before, made the decision she lacked capacity to hire an attorney. This prevented B from being able to hire a lawyer of her choosing, & placed her w court attorney, Samuel Ingham III, a lawyer B’s father requested

Side note: the court actually deemed Britney lacked capacity to hire her own attorney BEFORE an official medical evaluation was completed.

5. Britney was given no notice of the conservatorship filings. In California, proposed conservatees have the right to 5 days notice. This right, combined with the infringement of Britney's right to due process, should have resulted in the cship lasting no more than 30 days.

6. Britney is in a general probate conservatorship. This type of cship is intended for dementia/Alzheimer's patients. Court docs check "orders related to dementia placement" for B’s cship at age 26. Dementia patients are unable to complete the tasks & workload B has achieved.
7. A cship may have helped Britney regain visitation w her kids, but it wasn't the only way. When B was placed in a cship, she lost custody, as B does not even have custody over herself. She has a guardian, just like a minor, & has "visitation rights," not custody of her kids
8. Everyone is susceptible to undue influence in one way or another. Everyone has associated w people who were not the best influence. Britney being punished for a natural milestone in life is unfair & an abuse of a system meant to protect people like those w Alzheimer's
9. Court documents state Britney does NOT have a developmental disability, a common qualification for Limited Conservatorships. Note: developmental disability is not a reason in & of itself for someone to be in a cship. Many people w developmental disabilities are not in cships
10. Britney never stopped working. "Blackout" was released Oct 2007 & the conservatorship was placed Feb 2008. "Circus" was released Dec 2008, followed by a tour. A truly incapacitated person would not be able to achieve this, & cships are meant to protect people, not careers

Whatever support Britney would like in her life should be her decision. This conservatorship was fraudulent from the start, & is complete abuse of a system designed to protect. It's time to call out the corrupt, complicit court system.
