TMZ has confirmed that Britney Spears has been released from Cedars-Sinai hospital, following an explosive morning in which she was done, done, done with it!
Sources say the hospital released her without notifying any of the principals involved in the ongoing kiddie drama. So, you ask, how could she have been released so quickly, given that she had been declared a danger to herself and others?
We're told the "5150 hold" means that she can be held against her will for a max of 72 hours, but if the hospital determines she is no longer a danger, they can release her before that.
UPDATE: Additional sources now tell TMZ Cedars absolutely made the decision on its own -- without consulting any of the lawyers in the case. We're told it is Cedars policy (and the policy of other California hospitals) to evaluate whether the "danger" has subsided at any point during the 72-hour hold.
As we have reported, even though there is significant evidence that Brit has a bipolar disorder, Cedars cannot hold her against her will to treat such a problem. If doctors determine she is no longer a danger, they must let her go -- pure and simple.

This just might be the biggest mistake this hospital could have ever made, She holds her kids hostage and has a serious mental breakdown and she is deemed okay to be relased less than 48 hours later?
what in the hell is wrong with these idiot doctors?? giving in to this spoiled brat?? if she is bi polar she is indeed a risk to herslf and others!! i tell ya if i was standing next to brit id clip her upside the head because she is in need of that and some serious help, sedate her if she is acting like a loon!
So when she kills herself, or God forbid, her kids, can we hold the hospital responsible?
this girl is going to die. her membrain is damaged and she is crazy.
Why she gets away with everything when a regular person would have sent to jail inmediately after all that she's done!!
