The hearing came three days after her father, James Spears, and her attorney, Andrew Wallet, were granted temporary conservorship after Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz ruled that Spears needed someone to take over her personal and financial affairs. Goetz's decision might not sit well with Spears, who remains in a hospital psychiatric ward undergoing a medical evaluation. Adam Streisand, who sought to enter the case as Spears' lawyer, said in court that the pop star told him her dad shouldn't be named the conservator of her and her estate. "She has expressed to me very strongly that her father not be the conservator," Streisand said. "There has been an estrangement for quite some time. With him as conservator, that is causing her more agitation and more distress." ASSOCIATED PRESS Britney Spears got her stay in a psychiatric ward extended Sunday Feb.3, 2008, as doctors decided to keep her hospitalized an additional 14 days, someone close to the pop star told the Associated Press.
