In the probate notes by Judge Brenda Penny (JP) in BP108870 SPEARS, BRITNEY JEAN - CONSERVATORSHIP, JP notes that:
1. A legal paper submitted to the court alleged that "the Court previously found, on 10/10/2014, that the conservatee lacked medical capicity, but"
1. A legal paper submitted to the court alleged that "the Court previously found, on 10/10/2014, that the conservatee lacked medical capicity, but"
1. (cont.) the minute orders from 10/10/2014 DO NOT reflect that Britney lacked medical capacity
2. A CAPACITY DECLARATION HAS NOT BEEN FILED IN THIS CASE
3. The original letters of conservatorship dated 01/09/2009 DO NOT reflect that the conservatee lacks medical capacity
2. A CAPACITY DECLARATION HAS NOT BEEN FILED IN THIS CASE
3. The original letters of conservatorship dated 01/09/2009 DO NOT reflect that the conservatee lacks medical capacity
This means that for the last 12 years, at least, this conservatorship was instituted without a finding that Britney lacked medical capacity. However, this seems to be distinct from having mental/legal capacity.
Still, JP& #39;s signaling that this is a "voluntary" conservatorship signals that Britney does not lack capacity, mental or medical.
