DECISION & ORDER
CARL L. BUCKI, Bankruptcy Judge.
Counsel for the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has filed a final application for the allowance of its fees and expenses. The outcome requires the consideration of three issues: whether any portion of the allowance would violate the prohibition against fee splitting as stated in 11 U.S.C. § 504(a); whether counsel may receive compensation despite a failure to secure specific permission to appear pro hac vice; and whether the fees and disbursements are otherwise properly allowable under the standards of 11 U.S.C. § 330(a).
