Jamie Spears wants to remove himself as his daughter’s (Britney Spears) conservator — but only for four months.

Britney’s sons Sean, 13, and Jayden, 12, were allegedly granted a restraining order against him after he was involved in a physical altercation with Sean last month.

And now the 67-year-old has decided to temporarily relinquish the powers of conservatorship due to personal health reasons, TMZ reported.

The divorce between Spears and Kevin Federline and their battle for custody of their children has already cost the singer about a million dollars, Spear’s lawyer Stacy Phillips said on March 10, 2008, and called on the presiding judge in the case to limit the allowance Spears has had to give Federline to pay his lawyers to 175,000 dollars, warning she was not an “open checkbook.” AFP PHOTO / VALERIE MACON (Photo credit should read VALERIE MACON/AFP/Getty Images)

He has held power over Britney’s conservatorship for 11 years, managing the singer’s financial affairs and daily life since her 2007 breakdown.

TMZ reports Jamie wants to find a temporary replacement before Kevin Federline, Britney’s children’s father can challenge his conservatorship amid the abuse claim.

Jamie asks that Jodi Montgomery, whom he describes as the 37-year-old singer’s “care manager” for the last year, step in through January 20, 2020.

He wants her to have the same control he has had for the last decade — like the power to restrict visitors, the power to communicate with medical personnel and have access to all of Britney’s records and the power to retain caretakers and security for the star.

Jamie has requested an expedited hearing next Monday, claiming that Britney is “able but unwilling” to attend.
