K-Fed's Lawyer to "Revisit" Brit's Red-Light Roll
The courts are closed, so Britney Spears' custody saga is to be continued.
Kevin Federline's attorney told E! News Monday that, because it's Veteran's Day, he'll have to revisit whether to call for an emergency hearing regarding Spears' decision last week to plow through a red light while her children were in the car, rather than wait it out with the paparazzi.
While some reports placed lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan in court as soon as Wednesday, he wouldn't comment except to say that he would look into the matter on Tuesday.
The (very) gainfully employed counselor, who last month successfully petitioned the court to have Spears cut a check for $120,000 in attorneys' fees, also said that he didn't have any further info about Spears' recent drug tests in light of several published reports that one of them came back with a false positive.
During a hearing Thursday, Spears' legal camp stated that the Blackout artist had showed up for 10 tests and passed every one, while Kaplan maintained that she only made herself available for 6 out of a scheduled 14 requested tests.
Spears attorney Anne Kiley also suggested that her client be allowed six hours to present herself after the court calls for her to be tested, but L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Scott M. Gordon said that the current one-hour prep time would remain in place.
And now, there's this vehicular infraction.
Several paparazzi agencies on Friday published video and still images of Spears making a turn into oncoming traffic—possibly while texting. The apparent infraction came hours after the custody hearing and while Spears' court-appointed monitor was in the car.
Gordon was already scheduled to rule Nov. 26 on a request from Kaplan that the 25-year-old multitasker be prohibited from chauffeuring her sons, and this latest alleged development can only add more fuel to the privilege-slashing fire.
Court documents released Nov. 1 showed that the main reason Spears lost custody of two-year-old Sean Preston and one-year-old Jayden James on Oct. 1 was that she had been driving them around while lacking a valid California driver's license.
