The court extended the conservator role of Britney Spears' father on Thursday, leaving him in control of the troubled pop singer's well-being and her estimated 100 million U.S. dollar fortune until the next hearing slated for Mar. 10, media reported.

Jamie Spears was granted "temporary conservatorship" over his 26-year-old daughter's affairs some two weeks ago when she was in a Los Angeles hospital for psychiatric evaluation.

L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz also named Britney's brother Bryan, 30, as a trustee of her trust, granting him influence over her day-to-day expenses.

After more than a year of bizarre behavior in which she divorced Kevin Federline and lost custody of her two young sons, Britney Spears was put in a psychiatric hospital twice in January and under a repeatedly extended temporary conservatorship since the beginning of February.

Last week Jamie and Lynne Spears, Britney's mother, said in a statement they believed "her life is presently at risk," and in court documents they claimed her self-styled manager, Sam Lutfi, "drugged Britney" and controlled her life.
