Britney Thumbs Her Nose At The Court

070810cxf_bspears_181__opt.jpg

Briney Spears spent a mere 14 minutes being deposed on Thursday.

Why???

The trainwreck was almost TWO hours late for the court-ordered deposition.

By the time Brit Brit did arrive, K-Fed's lawyers, Mark Vincent Kaplan, was only able to grill her for 14 minutes before the deposition was scheduled to end.

Kaplan described Spears as "cooperative" and said, "I would've preferred it had gone on longer. [But] there has been no change in anything. It will be continued to another date, which I will not say at this time."

Asked at a press conference outside his offices if he got information he was looking for, Kaplan replied sarcastically, "In 14 minutes?"

No excuse has been given for Spears' almost two hour lateness, but it probably had something to do with the fact that she thinks she's above the law and her kids don't matter that much to her.

Kaplan said he hasn't decided whether to pursue court sanctions against Spears for being late and her repeated disrespect of court order.

But we hope he does!

      how can she show up to court late without being held in contempt. Celebrities need to be held to the same standards as normal citizens. A normal would have been in jail after missing time #1

      What the FUCK? Kaplan SUCKS. Federline should get himself a better lawyer, because this loser obviously is either getting blowjobs on the side from Brit (they do go to the same bars) or is too coked out himself to notice his client is getting screwed. Brit should not have any visitation, she should be out of play entirely until she gets her shit together. Pathetic child-woman. Pathetic lawyering. Those poor children.

      Yo. Depositions do not take place in court. They take place at a lawyer's office. Here, it was K-Feds. There is no judge there. That being said, I would file a motion for sanctions and request that she pay for the stenographer and attorney fees for the all the fruitless waiting around, both on this date and the others that she missed. I would also move that the court again order her to appear for her deposition for at least seven hours on another date and if she fails to attend, she will be held in contempt.

      crazybitch. she's probably loving her freedom from her 2 boos…she seems as ignorant as those dumb 12 year old hos who go on talk shows and claim they want to be a mommy and no one can stop them from doing so! she seems like such a dumb bitch that she was just going through a phase after she had been working for so many years, and she was in "love" with a piece of wigger trash, and she wanted to get married and have his babies. then she realized he was a shitty husband and she went nuts and started boozing it up. go brit!

      Re: Bert and Ernie – Suuure. Kaplan showed HER! He took the 14 minutes she threw him and sniveled off. He can't lay a glove on her, but won't admit it to his client Federline, because then he won't be able to bill him.

She was so sheltered when she was young, she was even told to lie about her virginity to protect her image. Now she does what she wants when she wants. She's Britney, bitch!

      Britney drives around every day looking for the attention. I don't have any sympathy or pity for this stupid fucking bitch. Everyone has problems. She needs to grow up and take responsibility for her actions. That includes treatment if needed. I've had enough excuses for her sorry ass.

      So celebrities have their own legal system now? I know for certain this wouldn't have been allowed to go on like a circus had this been one of the "normal" people. I guess we should just all pay to have a "celebrity courthouse" where they get their own laws and we have to obey the ones written in our constitution. This judge is a joke. I am ashamed that I live here in LA. It's really disturbing she gets 6 chances? um….no where else in the country does this happen. NO WHERE! I am f-ing pissed and disgusted. fuck you shitney tard!

      Does the judge in the case allow other people involved in custody cases to behave like this?

    82. PA Esq. says – reply to this


      82

      Can someone post a link to a site that has any legal documents related to this deposition? I am curious to know if there is an actual court order signed by the judge regarding her attendance today (or yesterday). I practice family law in PA, not CA, so I don't know exactly what the procedure is regarding notifying a party in a custody case of the intent to take their deposition. In PA, you send a "Notice of Deposition", which is not signed by a judge and therefore not a court order. You can only be in contempt if you are specifically violating an order signed by a judge. Even then, you will likely be slapped with a fine and posible further limitations to her visitation. In PA, they don't throw people in jail for these kinds of things; they simply restrict visitation and issue a fine.

      It should not be this hard to let your ex husband have custody of his kids. I think Britney just needs some time to herself and if she feels like it later, she can work on getting the kids back. At this point, she looks like she is about to fall apart.

      88

      A deposition is not court ordered and it doesn't take place at court. It is an agreed meeting between parties. A "Notice" of Deposition stating time, place, etc. is filed with the court just to have it on record. The court has nothing to do with it. She is not blowing off a court order but K-Fed's attorney - who cares?

    89. Mollygirl says – reply to this


      89

      Why is this attorney even questioning IF he should pursue sanctions?? if it was me that did this, he would. This attorney sucks. hey, k-fed.. I'd fire him and hire one with balls.

    90. Exyank says – reply to this


      90

      He's probably considering it because he's aware that they have to be careful in how they present their case. They've maintained all along that they don't want to "punish" Britney, just get her to get help, to get better, etc. He's probably weighing up whether it would hurt the perception of the case if he presses for her to be punished.
      Frankly, I think it's time Britney got a real smackdown. She needs a wakeup call in the worst way. Maybe some time in jail might help! You want her to get help Kaplan/Federline? Make her answer for her actions like everyone else on the planet has to do!

    91. silly says – reply to this


      91

      I assume because brittney would no appear for her depo that k-fed's lawyer served her with a subpoena to appear for her depo so she would be in contempt of court if she did not appear.

      95

      Re: RJ – We don't know if it was court ordered or not. Given her blatant violation of other actual orders in this case, there might be a court order stating that she must give her depo within a certain amount of time. I would certainly HOPE that Kaplan would have tried to get some type of order in place so that he had the ability to seek sanctions if she continued to screw off. A subpoena, while important, does not generally have the same legal implications as a specific court order in this type of situation.

      Re: RJ – The commish probably cares. He changed the next court date to accommodate her deposition and apparently he's not going to change the current visitation arrangements until she cooperates. At some point these temporary orders are going to become permanent. Visitation will be based on her behavior and it's not looking good for her. I think losing your kids is a lot worse than spending a few days in jail. But I agree with you. Who really cares if she loses her kids?
