Britney Spears's lawyer, Sorrell Trope, filed a request Wednesday to withdraw from the singer's custody case, court documents show. "There has been a breakdown in communications between (Spears) and Trope & Trope (law firm) making further representation of her interests impossible," says the document. Trope gave no further details. But he told PEOPLE the ultimate decision to quit isn't up to him. "A lawyer cannot simply withdraw from a case," he says. "We will ask the court to relieve us, which will be heard (in court) within a month's time."The next hearing for Spears and Kevin Federline is set for Feb. 19. The request to withdraw was first reported by TMZ.com.Soucre: People
