Celebrity Justice
Mama Spears to Judge: Brit's Just Clueless

Britney SpearsBritney Spears' mom is fighting her daughter's battles again -- telling a judge Britney should be excused from a driving without a license charge because the popwreck is ... uh ... easily confused.

In a declaration filed today, Lynne Spears claims that Brit didn't know she needed a valid California license -- because she was legit in Louisiana. FYI -- CA law requires that people who move to the state get a CA drivers license within ten days of the move. Since the popwreck also has temporary residences in Florida and New York, Lynne claims her daughter had no idea she needed to jump through Cali's hoops too.

Of course, the legal drama stems from an incident last year where she nailed a car in a parking lot and drove off.

But get this -- even though she's recently been searching for a new bachelorette pad in L.A., Mama Lynne says Britney still intends to return to Louisiana.

They'll be back in court August 11.

17. Brit's confusion about life matters can be laid at her mother's doorstep. She should have been teaching her instead of cashing in on her!

18. Ignorance of the law is now excuse. That what I have always been told. Any moron knows you have to be licensed in the state you live in. Wonder if she will get off because of who she is.

20. See i killed, hacked up and burried th e bodies of several go go dancers in the Ny and Nj area last year...Well the bodies were found and I was charged with several counts of murder and other violent charges. When in court, my laywer said " my client did not know that it was illegal in NY and NJ to kill, mame, and burry Go-Go dancers." Once hearing that the judge said "well golly, if he didn't know it was illegal then we cant really charge and sentance him now can we?? Just take this as a warning for next time son." And that was it......Oh did i tell you the court and Judge were in california???

23. She "NAILED" a car????? the damage was at best non existant and the owner was paid an excessive ammount for it. In any other state this offense is a ticket given situation.

The L.A. prosecuitor's office should just hang out with the tabloid press since they court attetion with idiot cases like this.

How many violent felons are waiting for trial while the attorneys waste time on BS things like this? California your law enforcement and courts are a disgrace to our entire nation.
