BREAKING NEWS! Britney Spears Serves Mother with a Letter from Lawyer


Britney’s mom, Lynne Spears, got quite the surprise Thursday when Brit presented her with a letter from a lawyer, and Extra has the all new video of it all going down.

Although reports have suggested the letter was a restraining order, Extra has learned it was actually a letter from an out-of-state lawyer.

Sources say Britney feels that her mom pushed her into Promises rehab center involuntarily. Brit also allegedly does not think her mother is stable enough to be around her two young sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James.

TMZ.com reports the letter asks Lynne to stay away from the children if she is taking any medications that would impair her ability to be around them.

Federline’s attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan told “Extra” that it would not be appropriate for him to comment on what is the custody arrangement that currently exists between Kevin and Britney.

Kaplan added, however, that in California any custody plan, whether voluntarily agreed to or ordered by the Court, is always modifiable based upon a current analysis of what is in the best interests of the minor child.
