United States Seventh Circuit


In the Matter of: Solis, 09-4075

In Chapter 7 proceedings, district court's affirmance of bankruptcy court's denial of an attorney's claim against the estate for $49,719.63 in attorney fees and costs is affirmed as, under the terms of the contingent fee agreement, the attorney is entitled to a percentage of only the money he actually recovered from other parties, not a percentage of the money the debtor had received earlier.
