TMZ has learned Britney Spears has lost physical custody of her kids. L.A. County Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon issued an order today, stating that Kevin Federline, the boys' father, "is to retain physical custody of the minor children on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 at 12:00 PM until further order of the court."
Judge Gordon had ordered Spears to undergo random drug testing and take parenting classes. Sources say Federline's powerhouse lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan (left), raised the issue that Spears was driving without a valid California driver's license, something first reported by TMZ.
X17 is reporting that Spears took the kids to the drive-thru at Carl's Jr. at 12:02 this afternoon and surrendered the kids to K-Fed's bodyguard three minutes later.
A source connected with the case says Spears was not focusing on the judge's order last month, and she may not have attended the parenting classes or performed the required drug and alcohol testing.
21. It is about time. Now someone keep an eye on Federline....
Hope she doesn't do something to them before Wednesday.

22. I feel bad for those kids. It's not about Britney or Kevin. It's about the best interests of those children. She may be a train wreck, but she's the only mother they know. They have no idea what is going on. Poor kids. I hope she has supervised visitation so the kids still see her.
24. The Los Angeles courts rarely take custody away from the mother. Things have to be really bad and proven in order for something like this to happen. Hopefully this will be her wakeup call and she will get help.
26. What a tragedy when a woman screws up so badly that her children are taken away... not to mention that the entire world hears about it before her own parents. She needs to start thinking moreabout those babies that she brought into this world and less about going out partying. Maybe she should have waited untill she was a real adult before becoming a parent.
27. That's really heartbreaking. Hopefully, this will be rock bottom for her and she'll start to live life differently. I'm really rooting for the girl, and I'm not even a fan.
Just a quick request to the people that continually mock her and laugh at her hardships, I know that she's made some really crappy choices, but maybe you could try to act a little human about the situation and treat her situation with the somberness it deserves....
