Britney's Custody Finalized & Officially Limited

Britney Spears' ongoing custody drama with ex-husband Kevin Federline is coming to an end: papers confirming their settlement are being filed.

"There is a final settlement in the Britney Spears-Kevin Federline custody case," Los Angeles County Superior Court spokesperson Allan Parachini tells Usmagazine.com.

"Documents will be delivered to the court today but they are not sure what time or if any of the documents will be made public today," Parachini explained.

Last week Spears, 26, agreed to give Federline, 30, sole custody of their boys Sean Preston, 2 1/2, and Jayden, 1 1/2.

Federline is "absolutely delighted," his lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan has said.

Spears currently has monitored, twice-a-week visitation and one overnight visitation per week. Under the settlement, Spears will get more time with her kids, her attorney, Laura Wasser said last week.

"It was a victory for the whole family that they don't have to go to a trial," she said. "I think they figured out a way to work together, to co-parent and make sure their kids will benefit from the result of that."

The singer lost visitation rights in January after she was hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Since then, she has been under the co-conservatorship of her father, Jamie. (A hearing is set for July 31 to determine if the co-conservatorship will be extended.)
