Britney’s Lawyers File New Court Docs Detailing K-Fed’s Support

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (September 14, 2007) – Kevin Federline will receive $20,000 a month from Britney Spears, according to a new filing, which a Los Angeles Superior Court Judge approved earlier today.

The three-page order was signed by Superior Court Judge Scott M.Gordon on Friday, although according to the papers obtained by Access Hollywood, it was signed by Spears and Federline in July.

While this is the first time the public has seen a description of what Spears is paying K-Fed, the document may not be the final say on the matter. A source close to Spears told Access, the paper is related to an upcoming tax filing for the star.

“There has been no change in the agreement with Kevin, which is still based on the iron-clad pre-nup,” the source said.

Though the source would not elaborate, several reports suggested Federline received just $1 million due to his split with Spears and he will not receive $20,000 until remarriage or death.

September 17 is the next filing deadline for tax payers.

In related news, more paperwork related to the Spears-Federline divorce was filed in LA Superior Court on Friday. The filing is a request to change and expand a previously filed request to seal court papers related to the custody of the former couple’s two children – Sean Preston and Jayden James.

In the new paperwork, filed by Britney’s lawyer, Laura Wasser, the lawyer claims the extreme amount “of publicity generated by this case poses an unprecented risk of devastating embarrassment to the minor children as they grow older.”

The reason for the filing appears to be an upcoming court hearing on Monday over custody of Brit and K-Fed’s two children.

If Wasser’s request to seal the child custody agreement is denied, she has asked that the papers related to it, instead of being made public, be returned to both her office and the office of K-Fed’s attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan.

Both Access Hollywood and People have filed their own papers in court, requesting the papers related to the divorce, which include the custody case filings, be made public

Wasser argues in her filing that the information contained in those papers can be used by the media or criminals to find where the children are and that “could threaten the safety of the minor children, by, for example, causing a traffic accident or by exposing the minor children to criminals who might target the minor children for financial gain.”

Calls to lawyers for Spears and Federline were not returned at press time.
