Film Ventures International, Inc. v. Asher (In Re Film Ventures International, Inc.)
United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the Ninth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
MEYERS, Bankruptcy Judge:
I
This case presents the issue of whether the Bankruptcy Court abused its discretion in awarding Appellee Raymond Asher post-petition attorney’s fees of $32,256.27. The Debtor, Film Ventures International, Inc., argues that the Court should have reduced or denied the legal fees, claiming that Ash-er held an interest adverse to the estate at the time of the bankruptcy filing and failed to disclose this interest to the Court in his employment application. We find no abuse of discretion and therefore AFFIRM the order of the Bankruptcy Court.
