Britney Spears's records remain private

The pop star is still under court-ordered conservatorship after a bout of erratic behaviour in 2008. Her father and attorneys control her personal and financial affairs.

Because of the conservatorship, she will not be required to give a deposition in the lawsuit from the company Brand Sense, which claims it helped negotiate a perfume deal for Spears but was cut out of the profits.

Brand Sense wanted to see medical records proving Spears couldn't testify. But Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Reva Goetz ruled on Tuesday that Brand Sense Partners has no standing to see medical records.
