Request For Payment Of Administrative Expense {H3070J}

Local Form H3070J - REQUEST FOR PAYMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE: COMPENSATION FOR DEBTOR’S ATTORNEY IN CHAPTER 13 CASE. This form is used in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii by a debtor’s attorney to request payment of fees and reimbursement of expenses through the debtor’s Chapter 13 repayment plan. Under 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(2), attorney fees are considered administrative expenses and may be paid from funds distributed by the Chapter 13 trustee. This form allows attorneys to specify the total compensation sought, either as the initial award authorized in the plan confirmation order or as additional compensation approved through a standard fee application. It accounts for retainers already paid prepetition and calculates the balance owed to the attorney through plan distributions. The form also requires acknowledgment that payment depends on the availability of funds in the debtor’s plan and that no fees will be paid if the request is filed after the plan is completed and final distributions have been made. www.FormsWorkflow.com
