Britney Spears' lawyers made it clear today in court: they want out. But it ain't that easy.

After
meeting privately in chambers with Commissioner Scott Gordon, the
matter was continued to Feb. 19. But here's what we know: the Commish
wants to make sure when Trope and Trope says sayonara, someone has to
be in place to handle the case. We're told the Commish wants Trope and
Trope to come back with a plan and wants to know specifically who's
coming in.

As we first reported, Britney secretly met with disso
queen Laura Wasser, who represented her during the divorce, but quit
Brit a few months back.
