Hutcheson v. Firstar Bank Burlington, N.A.

SCHULTZ, Justice.

This appeal involves a dispute over attorney fees in a probate matter arising from two orders of the district court. The first order set aside an earlier authorization for the payment of attorney fees to Kent Hutcheson. This order also required Hutcheson to either file an appropriate request for attorney fees or immediately reimburse the Daniel Borrego, Jr., estate the sum of $41,700, the fee previously authorized.
