Some people just don’t know when to let go, not even when a judge orders them to.

It was only days ago that we read about Britney Spears obtaining a restraining order against her former manager Osama “Sam” Lutfi and her ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib, who were harassing her and tried to file legal documents on her behalf. Now Lutfi is firing back by suing the Spears family for libel and defamation. 

Instead of just listening to the court order, Britney’s so called ex-manager, who caused her more trouble than good, Sam Lutfi, filed a lawsuit against the singer’s parents Jamie & Lynne Spears as a result of “the defamation, ridicule and harassment” from the two.

Spread over 45 pages, the lawsuit, which was filed on Los Angeles Superior Court Tuesday, reportedly details Lutfi’s version of what transpired between him and the Spears clan, alleging that it was he who encouraged Britney to reconcile with her family. The singer's father became co-conservator of her estate last year, following two forced hospitalizations.
 
According to papers obtained by celebrity gossip website TMZ.com, Sam Lutfi claims that Jamie and Lynne “launched a campaign of lies and intimidation designed to destroy” and drive him out of their daughter’s life.  Moreover, the conflict between Lutfi and Britney’s parents got physical when Jamie “intentionally punched him in the chest” threatening to kill Lutfi if he ever heard him make a rude comment about Lynne or any member of the Spears family again.

After seemingly succeeding with their objectives, Lutfi says that Jamie and Lynne continued their “smear campaign against him” and as a result of Jamie and Lynne’s actions, Lutfi continues to suffer “mental, physical and nervous pain and suffering,” the legal papers added. By suing them, Lutfi says he is solely defending against their persistent attacks.

The claims of libel and defamation sprung from Lynne Spears’ memoir “Through the Storm” which he claims is filled with “false statements,” which include the fact that Sam allegedly drugged Britney in an attempt to control her. Lutfi, who became Brintey’s manager after the two met in a Los Angeles nightclub two years ago, insisted that since the publication of the book, he “has been subjected to unfathomable amounts of ridicule and public scorn.”

In the book, Lynne wrote that Lutfi not only drugged her daughter, but he also verbally abused her, moved into her house, cut her home phone line and removed her cell phone charges, trying to take over her life and her affairs before her nervous breakdowns in early 2008, before Jamie was appointed Brit’s conservator. While in the position, he banned Lutfi from seeing the 27-year-old singer.

Lufti is seeking unspecified damages based on an oral agreement he claims to have made with Britney to remain her manager for four years and receive 15 percent of her earnings.
