Spears Ordered To Pay $375K In K-Fed Legal Fees
LOS ANGELES (AP) ―
A Los Angeles court commissioner has ordered Britney Spears to pay ex-husband Kevin Federline $375,000 to cover his attorney fees in their child-custody dispute.
Federline's lead attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan had asked for nearly a half-million dollars.
Commissioner Scott Gordon issued the order Monday in response to arguments presented last week.
Spears' attorney Stacy Phillips argued that Kaplan was over-billing and that Federline can pay his own legal bills, but Gordon wrote that Spears' actions led to a great majority of the litigation and delays in the case.
Federline has full custody of the two little boys he had with Spears.
