Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny is expected to answer Spears’ request to terminate her conservatorship at an afternoon court hearing.
“This week is gonna be very interesting for me! I haven’t prayed for something more in my life,” the singer wrote in an Instagram post earlier this week that she has since deleted.
CNN has not been able to independently confirm these allegations. An attorney for Spears’ father has denied this.
Last week, a new attorney for Jamie Spears, Alex Weingarten, petitioned to end the conservatorship without further financial compensation for the singer’s father.
“Jamie sees no reason why the Conservatorship should continue for any amount of time and asserts he has no interest in the Conservatorship continuing,” the documents stated. “To be clear, this request is not subject to any caveat. Jamie does not make this request subject to a demand for releases or compensation — it is unconditional.”
It’s anticipated Spears will attend the hearing virtually, while hundreds of the singer’s supporters are expected to hold a rally outside of the courthouse during the hearing, the same group of fans that made the hashtag #FreeBritney a viral movement.
Spears has thanked her supporters in recent social media posts. Following her father’s suspension she tweeted, “#FreeBritney movement… I have no words… because of you guys and your constant resilience in freeing me from my conservatorship… my life is now in that direction !!!!!”
Spears’ freedom, it seems, could be imminent.
