Britney Spears' father Jamie was granted an extension of his conservatorship over her until March 10, the LA Superior Court decided today.

Britney's brother Bryan, 30, and attorney Ivan Taback were named co-trustees of her trust.

"Ms. Spears' family, friends and members of her household have been paying for her basic necessities including medicine, food and other day to day expenses," Bryan's attorney told the court.

Also at the hearing it was reported that Jamie's attorneys have not been able to serve a restraining order to Britney's pal Sam Lutfi.

Jamie and attorney Andrew Wallet have been co-coservators of her legal, medical, and financial decisions since February 1, the day after Spears was involuntarily committed to treatment for bipolar disorder at the UCLA Medical Center.

The court's decision to put them in charge in the first place was the worst-case scenario for Spears, sources told Us, as she has never been close to Jamie (who battled alcohol abuse during her childhood and was verbally abusive).

Spears was released on February 6 after a week of treatment. She had been expected to remain hospitalized for another 10 days.
