Jamie Spears is reportedly planning to relinquish control of his daughter's affairs and finances before her wedding to former manager Jason Trewick later this year.
A 'source' told The Sunday Express: "Jamie wants to go to court in early February so Britney will be a free woman in every sense when she marries."
Mr Spears has had conservatorship of his daughter since that wobble in 2008.
The twice-divorced singer is rumoured to be marrying Trewick on Valentine's Day.
