Britney Spears is trying to get the next hearing on her conservatorship case moved up a month to expedite the process of removing her father as conservator of her estate, TMZ reported on Thursday.
Lawyer's for the 39-year-old pop princess filed new legal documents asking to bump up the timeline and submitted damning statements from co-conservator Jodi Montgomery about the damage Jamie is causing to Britney personally and to her fortune.

Jodi Montgomery is quoted in legal documents, according to TMZ, as stating: 'Mr. Spears's removal as Conservator is critical to [Britney's] emotional health and well-being and in the best interests of the conservatee.'
'I have had numerous, ongoing conversations with the medical team and we all agree that it would be best for Ms. Spears' well-being and mental health that her father stop acting as Conservator,' Montgomery also said.
Montgomery, an experienced conservator with a degree in social welfare, was brought on to co-manage Britney's affairs in September 2019, when her father Jamie Spears became ill.
Britney's lawyer, Mathew Rosengart added in the documents that, not only is Jamie harmful for the pop star's mental health, he is also damaging the health of her estate.
