To make a long story short, the question here isn’t necessarily whether she should’ve been placed into conservatorship. There are, however, more tools at our disposal to improve cognition when the decline is caused by mental illness. That is because it is very difficult to improve cognition when an individual is suffering from an ailment that causes chronic cognitive decline.

I can tell you that Florida’s guardianship system is not exactly the best place to adjudicate the capacity of someone suffering from cognitive deficiencies due to mental health issues. However, I gather the assertion was her mental health had declined to where she was unable to make decisions on her own behalf. I did not review the petition that was originally filed in Britney’s conservatorship. The answer is a typical lawyer’s answer: It’s difficult to say. Given these procedural safeguards, could what happened to Britney in California happen here in Florida? So, could what happened to Britney in California happen to her here in Florida? She is not in control of the money she earned as a star performer. The Court agreed and appointed Britney’s father as her conservator. Her father alleged that Britney’s diminished mental state left her vulnerable to exploitation and undue influence. Britney’s mental breakdown is what led her father to petition for conservatorship. The documentary does a good job rehashing some of the many events that lead to what the tabloid press and entertainment media would label a mental breakdown. Fiduciaries were appointed to manage and control her person and finances.

The documentary, streaming on FX and Hulu, describes conservatorship as “unique legal arrangements usually designed for elderly people who are unable to take care of themselves or their money.”Įssentially, at the age of 26, Britney was determined to be incapacitated by a California Court.

In Florida, this is known as guardianship. You may not know this, but since 2008, Britney has been under a conservatorship in California.
