Britney Spears Loses Legal Fees War With Ex

Brit ordered to fork out $375k to K-Fed for legal bills...
Britney Spears has been ordered to pay $375,000 of ex-husband Kevin Federline's legal bills. Brit was given the bill by Los Angeles Court Commissioner Scott Gordon who says it is "reasonable in light of the actions of Ms. Spears causing the great majority of litigation".
Last week, Britney's lawyer Stacy Phillips complained Kevin's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, had overcharged her. Phillips said Kevin should contribute to his own legal fees after leaving a $2,000 tip on a $365 restaurant bill recently. While Kevin previously insisted he has no regular income, Phillips argued he should pay part of his legal bills as he appears financially capable of leaving such an extortionate tip.
Meanwhile, Andrew Wallet - who, along with Britney's father Jamie, is co-conservator of her estate - was authorized to put some of Britney's cars up for sale yesterday.
No biggie, she can just take Diddy's celeb limo service everywhere.

"Phillips argued he should pay part of his legal bills as he appears financially capable of leaving such an extortionate tip."
Extortionate would imply that he took the tip, not left it wouldn't it? You can describe your gas bill as extortionate but not money you voluntarily give away. Pfft, lawyers.
