Britney Spears and the #FreeBritney movement have dominated the news lately, and while her case has helped shine a light on conservatorships, there are still many questions left unanswered.
So we're bringing in a lawyer to answer all of your burning questions about the court-ordered mandate, whether or not they're specific to what we know about Britney's situation.
Maybe you're still wondering what a conservatorship is, how a person can come to be placed under its hold, and why that might happen.
Or maybe you're curious about the different kinds of conservatorships, how far-reaching they can be, and if they all rely so heavily on finances.
And if you're mostly curious about Britney, maybe you're wondering what happens now that we've all heard her explosive testimony, and how many hoops she'll need to jump through before she's free.
