MEMORANDUM OPINION REGARDING MOTION FOR ALLOWANCE OF ATTORNEY FEES OF MARTIN FINE

STEVEN W. RHODES, Chief Judge.

Martin Fine and the Davenport Entities have filed a motion for allowance of attorney fees under 11 U.S.C. § 503. The issue is whether these legal fees should be allowed as an administrative expense of the debtors’ estate(s) under 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(3)(D) and (b)(4). The Court concludes that the fees should not be allowed, as the applicants have not made a substantial contribution to the debtors’ estates.
