It will take more than one DUI arrest for Britney Spears’ conservatorship to be reinstated, according to a legal expert.

core/paragraph

Attorney Sean R. Weissbart&nbsp;— the partner and co-chair of the tax, benefits, and private client practice group at Blank Rome — exclusively tells Page Six how the pop star could face legal repercussions after her arrest for driving under the influence this week.

“Although a DUI arrest could be a factor for the imposition of another conservatorship, by no means would a conviction on a DUI result in the imposition of a conservatorship,”&nbsp;Weissbart says.

The courts would need to demonstrate that the “Toxic” singer is “incapable of managing her personal and financial affairs” in order for another conservatorship to be put in place, the lawyer explains.

“Let’s be clear, the penalty for DUI is not the imposition of a conservatorship,”&nbsp;Weissbart stresses. “It could be probation, it could be a fine, it could be community service, it could potentially even be incarcerated for a sentence.

“But it’s not the imposition of a conservatorship, right? There would have to be a pattern that demonstrates that she’s truly incapable, on a long-term basis, of managing her personal affairs,”&nbsp;he says.
