Britney Spears’ manager and court-appointed lawyer resign
- Two of the US pop star’s key aides quit in fallout from singer’s testimony
- Singer plans to retire and no longer needs manager’s services, lawyer says
US pop star Britney Spears’ court-appointed lawyer in her contentious conservatorship resigned on Tuesday, a day after her longtime manager quit saying the singer planned to retire and no longer needed his services.
Lawyer Samuel Ingham, who has been representing the singer’s interests in the legal arrangement, filed documents in Los Angeles resigning from his position, according to a court filing.
He gave no reasons but said he would continue in the role until a new lawyer was appointed for Spears.
Spears has yet to file the documents needed to start the process of ending the conservatorship.
Meanwhile Larry Rudolph, who has managed the singer’s career for 25 years, said Spears has been “voicing her intention to officially retire” and that he was stepping down.
