Federal 7th Circuit Court
Civil Court
Bankruptcy
Law firm, which had filed fee application with Bankruptcy Ct. for services rendered as counsel to creditors’ committee, lacked standing to appeal order dismissing debtors’ involuntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases where law firm failed to appear at hearing where dismissal motion was addressed or otherwise object to proposed dismissal prior to Bankruptcy Ct. ruling. Fact that law firm was constituent of creditor committee that was represented at hearing or that law firm filed with Bankruptcy Ct. two motions to reconsider dismissal order did not satisfy appearance and notice requirements for obtaining standing to appeal dismissal order.
