Along with attorney Andrew Wallet, >Britney Spears' father was granted permanent legal control of his daughter, a court ruled Tuesday.

Jamie Spears was first put in control of his daughter's affairs Feb. 1 following her two forced hospitalizations in January.

His temporary conservatorship was set to expire Dec. 31.

But after a lengthy closed-chambers meeting Tuesday and evaluation of her mental health records, Spears' court-appointed attorney told the court commissioner that the singer had no objections with her father remaining in control.

"The court finds the proposed permanent conservatorship is necessary and appropriate [because of the] complexities of her financial and business entities and also potential for her being susceptible to influences," said Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz, who has been presiding over the case.
