Brit's Friend Facing Charges


Britney Spears' close friend and adviser Sam Lutfi is scheduled to appear before the L.A. city attorney on Dec. 18, Us Magazine has learned.

The closed-door hearing stems from an Aug. 27 car accident that occured when Lutfi, 33, allegedly rammed his Mercedes into a Range Rover driven by Aaron Cohen, a process server hired by Kevin Federline to subpoena Lutfi in his custody case with his ex wife. Lutfi reportedly collided with Cohen's car after Cohen attempted to serve him the legal papers.

A police officer at the crash scene described the collision as "assault with a deadly weapon." But LAPD officials tell Us Magazine the case is now being considered a "vehicle vandalism incident."

Lutfi was eventually subpoenaed to testify in the Spears-Federline custody case but has not yet given a deposition.
