Britney was in court regarding the conservatorship that was put in place following a series of very public melt-downs that resulted with a stay in hospital for the once troubled pop star.

Britney’s attorneys requested the court be sealed, which the judge granted, subsequently throwing everyone out of the court room.

Britney hasn’t spoken herself so far, relying on her attorney instead.

This is only the second time Britney has appeared in front of a judge since her conservatorship started, and her father was granted control over her legal and financial affairs, back in early 2008.
