Jon Eardley, the attorney who says he represents Britney Spears, vowed Wednesday to continue his fight, despite a federal judge's ruling against his claims, OK reports,

"We have only just begun the fight," Eardley said in a statement. "There is nothing that will stop me from dismantling, if necessary, this oppressive and unjust conservatorship."

Eardley still claims Britney, 26, hired him on Feb. 12; however, lawyers for Jamie Spears argued that Eardley's claims were invalid because under the conservatorship, Britney is not legally able to hire her own counsel.
