Court May Extend Dad's Control Over Britney

A commissioner will consider extending Jamie Spears's temporary control
over his daughter's estate in a hearing Thursday afternoon, amid signs
that his approach is keeping Britney Spears safe and out of trouble.
The singer's father has been overseeing her well-being and her $40-
million fortune since Feb. 1, when Los Angeles Superior Court
Commissioner Reva Goetz named him and Andrew Wallet temporary co-
conservators ? giving them the right to employ bodyguards who control
her actions and restrict her visitors.
Since then, they seem to have kept the pop princess on a tight leash,
forcing Britney to keep an uncharacteristically low profile (no
appearance of her pink wig, no overnight stays at the Four Seasons).
Although she has been spending much time holed up at her Summit house,
she was recently spotted shopping with her mom, Lynne, and has been
making regular trips to the Millennium Dance Complex.
Text-Messaging Friends
While Spears has been on her best behavior, sources say she's been text-
messaging friends from inside the house, complaining that she's bored.
"She's getting proper medical care and has professional security. The
chaos has been removed from the situation," says one legal insider, who
anticipates that Goetz will prolong the temporary conservatorship at the
hearing. (Proceedings are scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m., Pacific
time.)
It is possible Spears could appear, although she has consistently
avoided the courtroom in the past. The 26-year-old will be represented
by her court-appointed attorney, Samuel Ingham.
