In re Casey Lou Menge

Bankr. No.: 
22-40043
Chapter: 
7
Date of Decision: 
September 23, 2022
Issue: 
Whether the debtor's attorney's flat fee for post-petition services in this chapter 7 bifurcated fee bankruptcy case comported with the tenets of In re Quigley, Bankr. No. 21-40170, slip op. (Bankr. D.S.D. Feb. 9, 2022), and was reasonable?
Ruling: 
No. The attorney failed to demonstrate his flat fee for post-petition services reflected the required services the attorney still needed to perform and the additional reasonably anticipated services this particular debtor would also need.
