In response to Britney Spears’ conservator of her person, Jodi Montgomery, requesting that the Spears estate pay for security following death threats she’s allegedly received amid the growing media coverage – Jamie Spears, her father, is now pressing to the court that he too has been on the receiving end of threats despite his opposition to having the estate cover security costs for Montgomery.
According to court documents obtained Thursday by Fox News, the 69-year-old is very concerned about the situation that has been developing for many months and the dangerous rhetoric that has been circulating for quite some time regarding the conservatorship.
Jamie is well aware of the increasing number of threatening communications and social media posts directed to various individuals involved in the conservatorship, that are now apparently aimed at Ms. Montgomery now.
Now, the patriarch claims that he too, has been the subject of innumerable and ongoing threats as well – not just recently, but for years. Thus, Jamie said he understands well the inherent challenges that come with the position he holds as conservator and the work he performs on behalf of his daughter.
BRITNEY SPEARS' SISTER JAMIE LYNN COMMENTS ON CONSERVATORSHIP, SAYS SHE WANTS TO BE LEFT ALONE
However, Jamie disagrees with and objects to Montgomery’s request for 24/7 live security services for herself at a cost of over $50,000 per month to the Conservatorship Estate for an indefinite period of time. The pop star's father does not believe such an expense is reasonable, necessary, or a proper expense of the conservatorship estate.
Earlier this week, Spears' lawyer, Samuel Ingham, filed court documents to resign as her counsel after 13 years.
The news came on the heels of the pop star's longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, also resigning on Monday after Spears expressed her desire to go on an indefinite performing hiatus and amid consistent finger-pointing between Spears’ conservatorship team.
In a letter addressed to Jamie Spears and the court-appointed conservator Jodi Montgomery Monday, Deadline reported that Rudolph officially tendered his resignation.

Rudolph has been Britney’s manager for the majority of her career, including her rise to the top in the mid-1990s.

"It has been over 2 1/2 years since Britney and I last communicated, at which time she informed me she wanted to take an indefinite work hiatus," Rudolph wrote. "Earlier today, I became aware that Britney had been voicing her intention to officially retire."
The letter continues: "As you know, I have never been a part of the conservatorship nor its operations, so I am not privy to many of these details. I was originally hired at Britney’s request to help manage and assist her with her career. And as her manager, I believe it is in Britney’s best interest for me to resign from her team as my professional services are no longer needed."
