The prayers of family and friends of Britney Spears have been answered with the extension of a restraining order against former “manager” Sam Lutfi and ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.

The Spears legal team and her father Jamie Spears campaigned for a permanent restraining order against Britney’s former cohorts and their efforts were rewarded when a judge ruled today that the order against Ghalib would remain in place for three years.

The order against Lutfi will continue until April 1, when witnesses will testify to the judge about the continuing case.
