Sam Lufti Wants Brit Brit To Testify In His Defamation Lawsuit!

This guy is a real piece of work. Hasn’t he put this poor girl through enough?

Sam Lufti, who manipulated his way into the role of Britney Spears‘ manager while she was going through her issues and basically took advantage of her mental condition, has been pursuing a defamation lawsuit against her mother, Lynne Spears, for publishing just that in her memoir, Through The Storm.

Apparently, he’s now trying to get the pop star on the stand to give a deposition, but her team has resisted, claiming she is mentally incapable of doing so. Therefore, on Monday, he asked a judge to have a pyschiatric evaluation of her to that the claims are not true, due to her recent lucid interviews and upcoming tour.

According to a declaration to the court by UCLA Assistant Professor of Psychiatry Joshua Retsky, who analyzed the singer’s recent behavior on behalf of Lufti:

“In the Ryan Seacrest interview, which was recorded approximately two months ago, Britney Spears is interviewed at length, and she responds logically and coherently to questions, evidencing logical thinking and mental competency. The edited interviews in the [MTV] video documentary also evidence coherent and logical thinking, responsiveness to questions, and mental competence … In my opinion, there is good cause to conduct an Independent Medical Examination to investigate the Conservators’ claim that Ms. Spears is not mentally capable of testifying, and the claim that she was not mentally competent to enter into a binding contract. …”

Yes, this all may be true, but that doesn’t mean she should have to be thrown into a room with that man again!

It’s clear that our Brit Brit has come a long way, and has made an amazing recovery from her issues thus far, but we imagine she’s still got a long way to go – and there’s no need to have to endure the added stress of a man who enabled her when she was at her absolute worst!

Can’t he just leave her alone?! Ugh.

Absolutely deplorable!

What do U think?? Should Brit Brit be forced to testify?
