In re Imani Butler

24bk16719
The court awarded Debtor $2,500 after creditors violated the discharge injunction by sending two Wage Deduction Notices to Debtor. Debtor’s attorney submitted a Petition for Attorney Fees and Costs totaling $57,057.90. The court denied this petition as fees were reasonable under sections 329 and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code because Debtor’s attorney violated rules 3.3 and 8.4 of the Rules of Professional conduct by filing false pleadings that she failed to amend and for misrepresenting the facts of this case to the court.
