Listmates,
I was hired by a c13 debtor to defend a motion for relief from stay.
I was paid a retainer and agreed to an hourly fee. Now that I won and
the MFRS was denied my bill exceeds the retainer. I understand that
to get paid from the debtor through the plan I need to file a fee
application and then a motion to modify the plan. Debtor's son wants
to pay me outside of the plan over the course of several months. This
arrangement benefits the debtor because it saves trustee's fee. This
arrangement also benefits me, because according to the agreement, I
will get paid faster outside of the plan then I could through the
plan.
But if I delay filing the fee application now, will I lose the right
to do it later? What is the deadline for filing a fee applications?
Is there a code section or a rule that governs this issue?
Are there other issues here I am not seeing?
