OPINION

MOOREMAN, Bankruptcy Judge:

By this appeal the appellant seeks to set aside the trial court’s order which limited the appellant’s allowance of fees and costs to $8,694.88. The appeal stems from an order which was contrary to a previously entered order authorizing the employment of the appellant for the specific purpose of pursuing a certain claim on behalf of the Trustee. The previously entered order had set the appellant’s compensation at “the greater of either fees computed upon the then normal and specified hourly rates charged, or on a contingency fee basis.”
