Do we know how did it went?

I thought this was already passed? And if not, will it be by the time Britney appears in court? The timing seems great.

I think the one that was passed was AB 1194! There are currently 3 proposed bills in the making to reform conservatorships  

Each one is broken down here:

I'm so exited about all these changes and the impact of #FreeBritney

The fact that a conservatee weren't previously able to hire their own attorney is bananas. In the beginning they are absolutely owed that right tho now. Does this mean moving forward, if they weren't able to, they can now?

I am not sure if the change of law will apply retroactively and those already in conservatorship will be able to take advantage of this and choose their own lawyer. I pray that Britney can take advantage of this change.

Suspended to examine "economic impact". Nuff said. 

I am not from America so don't understand American laws but that phrase screamed out at me.

Good news. I hope they review and investigate Britney’s case ASAP

the bill specifically requests that it becomes retroactive to january of 2008 - lol evidently a britney fan wrote that.

(c) The Judicial Council shall, on or before January 1, 2008, adopt a rule of court to implement this section.
