Okin Adams & Kilmer, L.L.P. v. Hill, No. 13-20035 (5th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseOAK made a request for attorney's fees in an underlying bankruptcy case for legal services it provided when representing debtors in Chapter 11 proceedings. OAK sought review of the district court's order vacating in part and remanding in part the bankruptcy court's decision to award only a portion of OAK's overall attorney's fees request. The court dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction under the court's well-established principle that a district court order was not final within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. 158(d) when that order reverses an order of the bankruptcy court and remands the case for significant further proceedings on the very issue the parties sought to address on appeal.
