Britney's former manager finally served

Britney Spears's former manager Larry Rudolph was finally subpoenaed in the popstar's escalating custody battle. Rudolph "was served probably around 30 minutes ago," said the assistant manager at Sunset Tan in west LA this afternoon. "He's employed here. He's part owner." The process server was a woman. "We asked her who she was but she just said she had a meeting with [Rudolph]. After he walked in he said, 'Can I help you?' and she just handed the papers and left. He had no idea. He then said [to himself], 'Oh, okay. Yeah. They've been looking for me. This is for Britney Spears - Kevin Federline.' I was like, 'Really?' And he just stared out the window. You could tell he wasn't too happy about it." Rudolph had been trying to avoid being served because he felt his testimony under oath could hurt Spears's case.
