Britney Spears is taking action.
The 40-year-old pop star and her attorney Mathew Rosengart have taken legal action against her father Jamie and sister Jamie Lynn as the court battle regarding her 13-year conservatorship drudges on.
Fox News Digital obtained a cease and desist letter that Rosengart sent Jamie Lynn on Monday, telling her to “cease and desist from referencing Britney derogatorily during your promotional campaign. If you fail to do so or defame her, Britney will be forced to consider and take all appropriate legal action.” The singer is currently promoting her upcoming book, “Things I Should Have Said.”
“We write with hesitation because the last thing Britney wants is to bring more attention to your ill-timed book and its misleading or outrageous claims about her,” the letter continues.

Rosengart added that his client has no intention to read the book, but is shocked that Jamie Lynn has “exploited her for monetary gain.”
“She will not tolerate it, nor should she,” the attorney stated.

Taking another shot at the country star, Rosengart added, “Britney was the family’s breadwinner and she also otherwise supported you. Publicly airing false or fantastical grievances is wrong, especially when designed to sell books. It is also potentially unlawful and defamatory.”
Additionally, citing court docs, TMZ reports that Spears’ is requesting that millions of dollars that her father made during the conservatorship be returned to her – the docs allege that Jamie made $6 million over the course of the legal guardianship.
