BRITNEY SPEARS MUST ATTEND COURT

Britney Spears

Wild and crazy Britney Spears must attend a court hearing in Los Angeles on Monday, if she wants to continue fighting for custody of her children with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, according to published reports.The always in trouble pop star put her custody battle in jeopardy last week when she refused to hand back her two sons to Federline following a scheduled visit. Her actions sparked a three-hour stand-off with police outside her Beverly Hills California home, and resulted in the singer being hospitalised for two days at L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to undergo a full mental evaluation. Following the dramatic incident, Federline was awarded sole legal and physical custody of their sons Sean Preston and Jayden James while Spears was handed a temporary restraining order against her ex. But the two parties will face each other in court on Monday, when a judge will decide whether to restore the singer’s visitation rights.During the hearing, Commissioner Scott Gordon will hear eyewitness accounts of last Thursday’s events from members of the emergency services, who all attended the scene of the wild incident. And gossip website TMZ claims Spears must show her complete co-operation if she wants to salvage her custody case and win back her kids. Meanwhile, Federline’s attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, made a formal request for a copy of the full police report during a brief hearing held on Thursday.
