United States Fifth Circuit

In finding improvident an award of attorneys' fees for representation of a bankrupt's estate, the bankruptcy court abused its discretion in departing from a contingency fee arrangement approved under 11 U.S.C. section 328, and did not show that circumstances satisfy the exception provided in section 328(a).
