Wright added, “Ms. Montgomery looks forward to presenting a comprehensive Care Plan to the Court setting forth a path for termination of the conservatorship for Britney, and Ms. Montgomery looks forward to supporting Britney through that process.”
The statement comes after Britney’s father Jamie Spears made a court filing Wednesday claiming Montgomery is responsible for Britney’s “difficulties and suffering.” Jamie, 68, expressed his “concern” that Montgomery “does not reflect Ms. Spears' wishes,” as he made clear he has not served as her personal conservator since September 2019 and wants the court to investigate.
Jamie also claimed in his legal filing that during the time he served as conservator of the person for Britney, he “did everything in his power to support and care for Ms. Spears' well-being and personal decisions including marriage.”

Spears' conservatorship was first placed in 2008 with her father being named the permanent conservator of her affairs and attorney Andrew Wallet the permanent co-conservator of her estate. After Jamie stepped down due to health reasons in September 2019, Jodi Montgomery was named temporary conservator.
A source recently told PEOPLE that Montgomery has been “working with a team of experts concentrated on giving Britney the tools to get better.” Spears has never revealed a mental health diagnosis and her medical records are sealed, but “the hope is that she can eventually get out of the conservatorship,” added the source.
