Britney Spears' father has asked the court to let him step down as her conservator after he was accused of physically abusing her son.

A source told People that Jamie Spears, 67, “decided to temporarily step down” following allegations that he put his hands on the singer's 13-year-old son, Sean Preston Federline.

“Jamie has to focus on his health. He was also told it’s best to step down temporarily because of the police report,” an insider revealed. “Jamie seems stressed about it, and it’s not a situation that he wants to be in.”

TMZ reported that Jamie Spears filed documents requesting to “temporarily relinquish the powers of conservatorship … due to personal health reasons.” He asked that Jodi Montgomery, whom he called Spears' “care manager,” take over as her temporary conservator.

The move came weeks after a police report obtained by Us Weekly detailed an Aug. 24 incident involving Jamie Spears and the teen.

Sean and his younger brother, Jayden James, 12, were visiting their grandfather at his condo in California when Sean allegedly got into an argument with Jamie Spears.

Britney Spears reportedly removed her sons from her father's home and informed ex-husband Kevin Federline of the incident. Federline recently agreed to 70 percent custody of the children compared to Spears' 30; they previously shared 50-50 custody. He and the boys filed a restraining order against Jamie Spears.

Britney Spears filed for divorce from the former dancer in November 2006. The split was settled in March 2007. For a while, Kevin maintained custody of the children until Britney stabilized after her widely publicized breakdown.

Jamie Spears has served as the 37-year-old pop star's conservator since 2008.
