See the court paper for yourself below.

ET has obtained a new document from the Superior Court of California regarding BRITNEY SPEARS' conservatorship.

The paper, regarding a May 13 hearing, shows that Britney's lawyer filed a "Petition for Order Allowing and Authorizing Payment of Replacement Compensation to [Britney's father and co-conservator] JAMES P. SPEARS."

The court granted the petition, and also temporarily granted a request to seal supporting documents related to the petition, pending another hearing on May 29. No further details were available.
