Britney Spears‘ former manager, Sam Lutfi, poses a serious enough threat to her and her family that a judge is now extending a court order for him to keep away from her.

A judge granted the permanent restraining order against Lutfi Thursday in L.A. County Superior Court. While Lutfi was there, Britney was not — her father and lawyers were speaking on her behalf. 

In the end, the judge sided with Britney’s camp and decided they needed the protection. Lutfi has to stay at least 200 yards away from Britney, her family, refrain from reaching out to them and refrain from making disparaging comments about Brit. 

TMZ broke the story … Britney went to court seeking a temporary restraining order last month, claiming that Lutfi was attempting to harass her by getting in touch with her mom and stirring up the “Free Britney” movement, which wants her out of her conservatorship.

It’s unclear if Britney fully wants out herself, but she has expressed a desire for more freedoms that she currently doesn’t have … like owning a smartphone, for example. 

Either way, Britney claimed in court docs that Lutfi offered $1,000 cash to her mom, Lynne, to “disrupt and take over” the conservatorship process, which Brit’s dad, Jamie Spears, oversees. She also alleged Lutfi threatened to release old items of hers from when he managed her in the 2000s.

A judge felt enough of a threat existed at the time to give Brit protection for the time being.
