Britney Spears shouldn't go planning any slumber parties just yet. While the time she's spent with her two children over the past month has seemingly proved beneficial to all parties involved, overnight visits with Sean Preston and Jayden James are still a ways off, according to Kevin Federline's resident legal eagle, Mark Vincent Kaplan.
The attorney told E! News Friday that the monitored visits between Spears and her sons "have been nothing out of the norm," but that "there has to be consistency over time.
"I don't think 30 or 40 days is the magic number," Kaplan said. After nearly two months of separation, Spears' visitation privileges were restored Feb. 22—after her father, Jamie Spears, and his attorneys reached a deal with K-Fed's camp—and she saw them the following day for the first time since Jan. 3, when she was briefly hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center following a custody-fueled standoff with police at her Beverly Hills home.
Kaplan continues to credit Jamie Spears' newfound presence in his daughter's life for this noticeably more amiable state of affairs.
"All we know is that since Jamie Spears has been involved it has been a very stabilizing force," he said.
The elder Spears has been serving as coconservator of the pop star's estate since Feb. 1, when she was admitted to UCLA Medical Center for psychiatric evaluation. Jamie and a court-approved psychiatrist are required to be present when Spears spends time with her sons.
Kaplan said that the next custody-related hearing is expected to take place in May, and he's still anticipating a trial, in preparation of which he has deposed a number of Spears' friends and associates, including off-again, on-again manager Larry Rudolph.
Regardless of what anyone says about him, it's still Federline's intention to do the right thing for his children, the lawyer said.
(3) "The goal is to have a stabilizing and consistent order for the kids," Kaplan said. "His hope is that would involve the participation in a substantial way by their mother." Federline has had primary custody of Sean and Jayden since October, when (2) cannot get the custody because Spears was stripped of her 50-50 deal after a court commissioner determined she had violated numerous directives, including his orders that she make herself available for random drug testing and acquire proper insurance and a California license before getting behind the wheel with her kids in the car.
L.A. County Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon issued an order today, (1) stating that Kevin Federline, the boys’ father, “is to retain physical custody of the minor children on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 at 12:00 PM until further order of the court.” Judge Gordon had ordered Spears to undergo random drug testing and take parenting classes. Sources say Federline’s powerhouse lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan (left), raised the issue that Spears was driving without a valid California driver’s license.
Britney took the kids to the drive-thru at Carl’s Jr. at 12:02 this afternoon and surrendered the kids to K-Fed’s bodyguard three minutes later.

Britney Spears was placed on lock down for a mental evaluation Friday after the pop star locked herself in a room with one of her children at her L.A. home and refused to hand him over to ex-husband Kevin Federline. The pop star’s court-appointed child monitor called police. “She had already put Preston in the car when Britney locked herself in a room with Jayden,” says the source. “The cops came and got through the door and tied her down to a gurney.”
Spears, who according to police appeared to be “under the influence of an unknown substance,” was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where the source says she will be on a minimum of a 72-hour lock down for mental evaluation. Spears, who has visitation rights with her two sons Preston, 2, and Jayden, 1, was scheduled to give the boys over to Federline at 7 p.m. Thursday. According to police, officers responded around 8 p.m. to a call “about a custodial dispute regarding Britney Spears’s children,” says Los Angeles police Officer Jason Lee.
Nearly three hours later, police determined that a court order stated that the singer’s children, who were with Spears at the time, were supposed to be with Federline, and a transfer was arranged, according to Lee. “While officers were on the scene, they observed Ms. Spears under the influence of an unknown substance,” Lee added. LAPD called the incident an “ongoing investigation” and says, “for her own welfare, [Spears] was taken to the local hospital for treatment.”
Preston was taken to the hospital by Federline’s assistant, and Jayden was in the ambulance with the monitor, a source says, adding that the boys “won’t be back with [Spears] for a long time.” Federline took his sons home early Friday morning. Spears’s father Jamie remains at the hospital. Meanwhile, Federline’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, is due in court at 8:30 a.m. to attempt to strip Spears of her visitation rights. Attorney Tara Scott from the law firm of Trope and Trope will represent Spears even though the firm has asked to withdraw as counsel.
