Jamie Spears, the father of Britney Spears, has forced the closure of a fan site due to copyright infringement.
Spears took legal action against Jordan Miller, the owner of BreatheHeavy.com, for breaching copyright rules by posting unauthorised photos, lyrics and videos online.In a message to fans on the site's front page, Miller wrote, "I have been battling the conservatorship Britney is currently placed under for months now.
"When I did not conform to the requests and demands Britney’s management and father, Jamie Spears, recently put upon BreatheHeavy to stay quiet, they in turn became angry and malicious, launching, what I feel is an unjust attack, against me and my website."
Miller also claimed that one of Spears' lawyers told him "you are an uber fan who’s gone a little too far."
He said: "This conservatorship Britney is placed under, which controls every aspect of her life, is now clenching the future of her biggest fansite."
Miller is asking fans to donate funds so he can fight the legal action but Spears' legal team says it will pursue damages against Miller if the site stays up.
