Britney Spears Mom May Use California Court for Visitation

Britney Spears isn't happy with mom.  There are several reports that she hand delivered a note to Lynne that allegedly told her to stay away from her kids.  But her kids are also hubby Kevin Federline's kids.  You know, K-fed, the responsible one.  He has refused to sign divorce papers and his new BFF is Lynne.  Can they win against Britney in court?

Maybe.  TMZ grabs a lawyer and notes that Section 3104 of California's Family Code gives judges the power to award visitation rights to grandparents. Judges consider two factors -- if there's a preexisting relationship between the grandparent and the grandchildren -- in Lynne's case, there is.

The judge will also balance the benefits the child will get from visiting grandma against the rights of the parents to exercise their parental authority.

Here's where it gets interesting. If both parents nix the notion of grandma having visitation, there's a strong presumption the judge should deny grandma's request. So K-Fed may be critical if Lynne takes it to the judge. If Fed sides with Lynne, she'd have a shot.
