Britney Spears was ordered to remain hospitalized for a further two weeks to continue psychiatric evaluations, as a court postponed a custody hearing over her two sons, according to celebrity website TMZ.com. © Daniel Locke / PR PhotosLawyers for Spears and ex-husband Kevin Federline were at the courthouse with two new players: an attorney for Spears's father Jamie, who as temporary co-conservator has been granted widespread powers over her affairs, and the other co-conservator, lawyer Andrew Wallet. Spears, 26, currently has no visitation rights for their sons, Preston, 2, and Jayden, 1, and has been fighting Federline, 29, in family court for more contact with the children. Pop wreck Spears was hospitalized early Thursday for a 'mental health evaluation hold,' after her psychiatrist signed a decree stating that she was a potential danger to herself and others. Spears was taken from her house in an ambulance, escorted by a police motorcade as dozens of paparazzi looked on. It was the second time in a month that Spears was subject to the mandatory evaluation order. In early January, she was committed to Cedars Sinai Hospital for a day, after a standoff with police in which she refused to hand over her toddler Jayden to Federline. This time, she was sent to the UCLA Medical Center, where she is being treated for a severe bipolar disorder, according to TMZ.
