United States DC Circuit

In an appeal from a bankruptcy court's imposition of sanctions on counsel for a debtor, for violation of Rule 9011(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, the order is reversed where requesting counseling from an unapproved credit counseling agency could satisfy 11 U.S.C. section 109(h)(3), and thus counsel did not violate that statute.
