Britney Spears not keen on testifying against former manager

OHMYGOSSIP — Britney Spears doesn’t want to have to testify against her former manager. The singer is being sued along with her parents by her ex-manager Sam Lutfi for breach of contract and defamation and is worried she might have to appear in court, despite her legal guardians insisting she isn’t well enough to testify.

“She’s terrified that she is going to be forced to testify even though the judge handling her conservatorship ruled she isn’t mentally competent to participate,” a source said.

“Britney doesn’t want to see Sam Lutfi or be in the same room with him again, ever.”

“Sam’s lawyer is still pushing the issue with the judge handling the lawsuit though and said during a hearing that he hadn’t decided about whether or not he would call Spears as a witness.

“The Spears’ family lawyers raised fierce objections and have vowed to wage a legal fight if Sam pushes the issue.

“Britney is terrified of Sam and has very bad memories about the time he was involved in her life.

“Brit is being kept busy with work on X Factor and her sons. The upcoming trial isn’t discussed with her because it’s just too upsetting.”
