Lawyer Mathew Rosengart also wants Jamie Spears
to submit written answers to questions and provide documents
about the spending as well as a documentary's claims https://www.reuters.com/world/us/britney-spears-calls-texts-were-monitored-new-documentary-says-2021-09-25/#:~:text=In%20%22Controlling%20Britney%20Spears%2C%22,in%20her%20bedroom%2C%20Vlasov%20said
that a security firm monitored Britney Spears' phone and placed
a listening device in her bedroom.
Britney Spears has been living under a court-approved
conservatorship that her father spearheaded in 2008 after the
"Piece of Me" singer had a mental health breakdown.
A judge suspended Jamie Spears as conservator

of his daughter's finances in late September and is set to
consider whether to end the entire arrangement at a hearing on
Nov. 12.
In early September, Jamie Spears reversed his longstanding
position and said he supported ending the conservatorship, which
his daughter has called humiliating and abusive.
Rosengart has argued in court that Jamie Spears changed course
because he mismanaged his daughter's estate and hoped to avoid
any inquiry into his actions.
In court papers filed last week, Rosengart asked Jamie Spears to
produce any documents including e-mails and text messages
regarding the singer's finances and the allegations in a New
York Times documentary that her phone and conversations were
monitored.
Rosengart also asked Jamie Spears to sit for a deposition to
answer queries under oath.
A newly hired attorney for Jamie Spears did not immediately
respond to a request for comment on Tuesday. A previous attorney
for Jamie Spears has said he helped rehabilitate his daughter's
career and always acted in her best interests.
