Is this dude still a threat?! Britney Spears' family has requested another extension on a temporary restraining order against Brit's former friend/manager Sam Lutfi.

The order was original granted May 8 to stay at least 200 yards from Spears, her parents and her two sons, and to refrain from contacting or disparaging them. The petition Spears’ attorneys filed for the order claims Lutfi has been sending harassing and threatening texts to Spears’ family and disparaging them on social media.

Of course Lutfi was the guy with Britney every single day leading up to her breakdown in 2008. He's the one who went to Rite Aid with her at 2am to buy Red Bull as she wore a pink wig and spoke with a British accent. He's the one accused of calling the paparazzi (he called us) and he's the one who SUED Britney's estate for breach of contract in 2009. That lawsuit was settled in 2016.

The petition for the latest restraining order alleges Lutfi’s “unjustified interference in her life” threatens Spears’ “safety and well-being” and has caused her “severe mental trauma” at a time when stress and the poor health of her father have prompted her to put her career on hold indefinitely.

So is it Sam Lutfi who's stressing Britney out these days and forcing her to seek treatment for mental health issues? Is the #FreeBritney movement really onto something?!

We know one thing ... she's still going on about her business, getting Starbucks at the drive-thru! ...
