Amanda will stay in the psych ward for 2 more weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=\"gray-bar-update\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2013/03/21/gray-bar-update-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Amanda Bynes&lt;/strong&gt; is in a court hearing right now to determine if the 5150 psychiatric hold will be extended for 2 weeks, and if the judge denies the extension Amanda could walk free tonight ... TMZ has learned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources connected with the matter tell TMZ the hearing is being held in the psychiatric hospital where Amanda has been confined. A judge is presiding over the hearing at the hospital.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're told Amanda has her own lawyer who is arguing that the extension should be denied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our sources say the doctors are arguing that they need the 2 weeks to properly diagnose Amanda ... and that releasing her could pose a danger to herself and others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the judge denies the extension the 72-hour hold expires in a matter of hours and Amanda could go free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People connected with the case tell TMZ, however ... they feel confident doctors will win an extension.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're also told the reason Amanda's parents are going to court Friday morning is because they are worried the judge will reject the 2 week extension and they want the ability to control her actions in the event that happens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class=\"lightbox-link\" href=\"http://www.tmz.com/photos/2013/05/23/amanda-bynes-crazy-twitter-pictures/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;img alt=\"0523_amanda_bynes_twit_pics_footer\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2013/05/23/0523-amanda-bynes-twit-pics-footer-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
