God bless self-appointed Britney Spears attorney Jon Eardley and his disposable motions in her conservatorship case. Without him and the Lutfi gang of BFFs, unsolicited saviors, and dutiful spokespeople on the periphery, what ever would we all write about hour after hour?

Late yesterday OK! reported that Eardley's newest motion claiming civil rights violations and seeking to undo Spears' court-mandated restriction was thrown out before the other side had a chance to respond. Lest anyone think Eardley will be going away anytime soon, OK! was sure to keep him on the hook for more items.

Eardley, the mag reports, was at one time legitimately working on Brit's behalf—she had set up a conference call with him and a paparazzo pal so her father, who is said to be monitoring her phone calls, wouldn't catch on. Someone even slipped OK! a phone transcript in which Britney says to Eardley: "Basically I want my life back. I want to drive my car. I want to live in my house alone. I want to pick my own security, see who I want to see and make it happen."

Of course, she's also speaking in her fake British accent.
