Spears’ Dad Quits Job For Full-Time Conservator Role
BRITNEY SPEARS father JAMIE has quit his job as a caterer to dedicate himself
full-time to overseeing his daughter’s business affairs.
Jamie Spears was appointed conservator of the star’s legal and financial
affairs in February (08) and is in charge of her estate – with court-appointed
observer Andrew Wallet – until 31 July (08).
And now, according to court papers, the pop star’s father has taken on a
full-time position as conservator – being awarded a $2,500 (£1,250) weekly
salary for the role.
Spears was also awarded a $10,000 (£5,000) lump-sum to cover the first month
of his co-conservatorship over his daughter’s estate, according to U.S.
publication People.com.
The court documents also give the reason why he needs to quit his job as a
caterer, with the papers stating the responsibilities of conservator “have
required (his) full-time attention”.
There will be a further court hearing on 29 May (08) to discuss monetary
matters in greater detail.
And it seems Spears’ role over-looking the singer’s affairs is paying off –
since he was appointed conservator in February (08), the 26-year-old has
secured expanded visitation rights with her two sons; Sean Preston and Jayden
James.
