Britney Spears’ parents issued a statement claiming they strongly object to their daughter’s release from a psych ward because they “believe her life is presently at risk.” The doctors at the UCLA Medical Center said they were forced to release the singer because she was no longer a danger to herself or others.

Jamie and Lynne Spears expressed their fears in a joint statement issued Wednesday night to CNN’s Anderson Cooper:

“As parents of an adult child in the throes of a mental health crisis, we were extremely disappointed this morning to learn that over the recommendation of her treating psychiatrist, our daughter Britney was released from the hospital that could best care for her and keep her safe.

We are deeply concerned about our daughter’s safety and vulnerability and we believe her life is presently at risk. There are conservatorship orders in place created to protect our daughter that are being blatantly disregarded.

We ask only that the court’s orders be enforced so that a tragedy may be averted.”

TMZ guessed Jamie and Lynne will be in court tomorrow asking the commissioner in the case to send Britney back to the hospital. As soon as she was released earlier today, Britney met up with Adnan Ghalib at the Beverly Hills hotel, and was soon back to her usual routine of driving aimlessly and hitting up gas station restrooms while speaking in a British accent. Obviously, Jamie would like to put a stop to this immediately.

Based on what we know, it’s a good bet Jamie Spears will be back in court — we’re guessin’ tomorrow — asking the Commish to put some teeth in the conservatorship order. That order gives the conservator power to restrict the visitors Brit receives. No doubt Ma and Pa were frustrated that Brit let a paparazzo ride with her in her car today. And we’re hearing they were none too happy about the people she saw at the Bev Hills Hotel.

It wouldn’t be at all unusual for the conservator to ask for an order requiring the cops to enforce the instructions Jamie lays down. In other words, he could call the Bev Hills Police and ask them to remove the pap from the car.

Likewise, the conservatorship gives Jamie the right to approve contracts. It’s a good bet he would not have approved Britney buying stuff or getting a room at the hotel. Think about the cops going to the hotel and telling the manager they can’t let Brit buy stuff or get rooms without Jamie’s consent and if they defied Jamie they could be held in contempt.

Britney and Adnan visited Britney’s attorney late today, so perhaps she’s preparing for a showdown tomorrow.
