In the Matter of Rudolph N. Patterson, Appellant, 376 F.2d 196 (5th Cir. 1967)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit - 376 F.2d 196 (5th Cir. 1967) April 21, 1967

Rudolph N. Patterson, Macon, Ga., for appellant.

Before BROWN and BELL, Circuit Judges, and BREWSTER, District Judge.

PER CURIAM.


Appellant complains of the inadequacy of the fee awarded him by the Referee for services rendered as counsel for the bankrupt. Such inequity as is disclosed by the record, based on a comparison of services rendered by appellant and counsel for the receiver-trustee and their respective fees, does not rise to the level of an abuse of discretion. See Blanch v. Rankin, 5 Cir., 1961, 291 F.2d 217.

Affirmed.
