In re Carr (Case No. 12-71316) 03/07/2013
The United States Trustee filed a motion for review of debtor’s attorney’s fees, on the grounds that the attorney prepared and filed, on behalf of the debtor, certain deficient and inaccurate schedules and statements. During discovery, the United States Trustee filed a motion to compel the production of the engagement agreement between the debtor and the attorney, to which the attorney objected. The court concluded that that the engagement agreement between the attorney and his client was relevant to the issue of whether “inaccurate schedules and statements” had been filed in this case. The court thus granted the motion to compel.
