- A judge plans to make new rulings about Britney Spears' conservatorship during a Wednesday hearing.
- See live updates here from the Los Angeles courthouse.
At the last hearing, Britney Spears gave her own testimony and verbally requested that the conservatorship come to an end.
The testimony was a groundbreaking moment in her ongoing legal case. Spears spoke for 24 minutes, addressing Judge Brenda Penny. Spears said the conservatorship was "abusive" and asked for help dissolving the legal arrangement.
Following the June 23 hearing, both Bessemer Trust (the financial institution currently serving as coconservator of her estate) and Samuel Ingham (Spears' court-appointed lawyer) filed petitions to the court asking for permission to resign from the conservatorship.
Judge Penny is expected to make rulings about those petitions during Wednesday's July 14 hearing.
Wednesday's hearing in a Los Angeles court will address recent petitions made by Britney Spears' conservators and her lawyer.
There have been many updates to the legal case surrounding Britney Spears' conservatorship since the last hearing on June 23.
Wednesday's hearing is where the judge overseeing Spears' case will most likely make a decision about Spears' ability to select her own lawyer, something Spears' mother Lynne recently advocated for in a court petition.
The judge will also likely address the other petitions filed by current conservators Bessemer Trust, Jodi Montgomery, and her father Jamie Spears.
