Kevin Federline’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, is on his way to court this morning to ask the Commissioner to strip Britney of her visitation rights because of her melt-down last night.

TMZ reports,

We’re told there may not be much of an argument and it’s almost certain the Commish will see Kaplan’s point.

Attorney Tara Scott from the law firm of Trope and Trope will represent Brit — awkward, since the firm has asked to withdraw as counsel.

As Allie is Wired reported, Britney is at Cedars-Sinai on a “5150 hold,” meaning there’s evidence she’s a danger to herself and/or others — others as in her kids. She was overheard screaming at the top of her lungs,

“I would rather die, than let him have my babies.”

Here’s what’s really interesting. For several months now, it’s been reported that Britney doesn’t have a drug or alcohol problem — that her instability is mental, not chemical. She’s even passed several court appointed drug tests.
