She’s got to be very near the top of every 2008 ‘Dead Pool’ list at this point.

A court filing by Trope and Trope obtained by CelebTV.com cites a "breakdown" in communication with the pop princess

Sounds like the trailer park needs to update its wiring.

My daughter recently made the observation that Britney Spears life would most likely be the same if she had never become rich and famous.

She would still have 2 kids by some lowlife who left his pregnant girlfriend for her. She would still be battling CPS and the lowlife for custody of the kids. She would still be drinking and driving and making Taco Bell runs at 2am. And her 16 year old sister would still be knocked up.

The only difference is that all this would be playing out in some trailer park in Louisiana instead of the streets of LA and we wouldn’t be subjected to the daily updates.

Trope & Trope....Aren’t they involved in the Anna Nicole CASES as well?

This whole story is sad. The mother pushed her kids into showbiz and has lived off them. Living in a trailer doesn’t make you trash just as having a gazillion dollars doesn’t make you classy.

Spears has her problems but is she really a worse parent than Federline? I have been reading articles about what an outrageous scam child support is. The government is in charge of collecting child support payments and to justify its existence, it needs to brag about the numbers, so it awards outrageous amounts that are often hard for the payee, (usually divorced fathers) to make.

So I wonder, why in this post-feminist era are women still granted custody in the vast majority of cases? Is it because the highest earner is the father and thus maximizes the amount of child support collected from the non-custodial parent? Wouldn't it make more sense to just award custody to the higher paid parent, unless you wanted to maximize the support dollars collected?

Could this be why Britney was not awarded custody? So she could pay child support instead of collect it?

I expect she’s not paying their monthly bills....lawyers love a rich client....and a case like this that goes on and on throws off billing like crazy....everything is on the hourly billing clock....if the lawyer calls you and talks 10 minutes thats one sixth of an hour in billing.....I don’t know what LA lawyers are charging but my daughter bills out at $600/hour in DC....and she’s just a junior pardner in the firm.

It could be that Brit is running out of money and her lawyer doesn’t want to represent her pro bono. Her doofus former husband likely spent a lot of her money and all the rehab, drugs, shopping and clubbing doesn’t come cheap either. I also doubt she will have any new hit records in the near future. Watch for Brit soon to be appearing at an Indian casino near you.

MSM misreporting.

Sounds like boilerplate language to pull out of a case.

This must be serious. I’ve never heard of a lawyer quitting while he was getting paid.

Even Britney’s ‘liars-for-hire’ couldn’t put up with her not listening to their advice. It seems like she actually could care less if she gets those kids back.

When even the lawyers won’t have anything to do with you you know you have sunk lower than whale poop.

When somebody is addicted they don’t care about their own life as much as their addiction... it makes it very hard for them to care properly about other things.

She’s not paying her bills.
