Spears has been in conservatorship since 2008
Britney Spears' father has agreed to step down from his long time role as conservator of his daughter's estate.
Jamie Spears says he doesn't want a "public battle" with the singer.
In a court filing, lawyers for the 69 year old noted here are "no actual grounds" for his suspension or removal.
39 year old Britney has previously described the legal arrangement, controlling her affairs, as humiliating and abusive.
Mr. Spears says he's been the target of "unjustified attacks" but is preparing for an "orderly transition".
Senior reporter with the Daily Mail, Harriet Alexander, says it's a milestone in Britney's case:
