The attached time and expense entries have been underlined to reflect disallowance in whole or in part. The basis for each disallowance is reflected by numerical notations that appear on the left of each underlined entry. The numerical notations correspond to the enumerated paragraphs below.
(1) Unreasonable Time -TOTAL of disallowed amounts: $ 5.802.90
The Court denies the allowance in part of compensation for the indicated task(s) since the professional or paraprofessional expended an unreasonable amount of time on the task(s) in light of the nature of the task(s), the experience and knowledge of the professional performing the task(s), and the amount of time previously expended by the professional or another on the task(s). In re Pettibone, 74 B.R. 293, 306 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("The Court will determine what is the reasonable amount of time an attorney should have to spend on a given project... An attorney should not be rewarded for inefficiency. Similarly, attorneys will not be fully compensated for spending an unreasonable number of hours on activities of little benefit to the estate."); In re Wildman, 72 B.R. 700, 713 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) (same).
As to the time devoted to the preparation of the fee application itself, the Court denies the allowance of compensation that is disproportionate to the total hours in the mam case. In re Wildman, 72 B.R. 700, 711 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("In the absence of unusual circumstances, the hours allowed by this Court for preparing and litigating the attorney fee application should not exceed three percent of the total hours in the mam case."); In re SpanjerBros., Inc., 203 B.R. 85, 93 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1996) (Squires, J.) (compensation limited to 5%); see also In re Pettibone Corp., 74 B.R. 293, 304 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) {citing Coulter v. State of Tennessee, 805 F.2d 146, 151 (6th Cir. 1986) (in nonbankruptcy cases, compensation for preparation and litigation of fee petitions limited to 3-5% of the hours of the mam case)). However, for applications for compensation that request total fees of $10,000.00 or less, this Court will allow compensation for the time devoted to the preparation of the fee application itself in the following manner: For the first $5,000.00 of total compensation requested, this Court will limit time devoted to preparation of the fee application to 10% of total compensation requested and will allow 5% of additional total compensation requested for time devoted to preparation of the fee application.
(2) Insufficient Description - TOTAL of disallowed amounts: $ 29.661.00
The Court denies the allowance of compensation for the indicated task(s) as the description of each task fails to identify in a reasonable manner the service rendered. In re Pettibone, 74 B.R. 293, 301 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("A proper fee application must list each activity, its date, the attorney who performed the work, a description of the nature and substance of the work performed, and the time spent on the work. [Citation omitted] Records which give no explanation of the activities performed are not compensable."); In re Wildman, 72 B.R. 700, 708-09 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) (same).
(3) Duplication of Services - TOTAL of disallowed amounts: $ 440.00
The Court denies the allowance of compensation for services that duplicate those of another professional or paraprofessional. See 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(4)(A)(i). Reduction in fees is warranted if multiple attorneys from the same firm appear in court on a motion or argument or for a conference, unless counsel adequately demonstrates that each attorney present contributed in some meaningful way. In re Pettibone, 74 B.R. 293, 307 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("A debtor's estate should not bear the burden of duplication of services. If found in the record, such duplication shall be disallowed by the court as unnecessary."). It is also an accepted principle that generally no more than one attorney may bill for time spent in an intra-office conference or meeting absent an adequate explanation. See In reAdventistUving Ctrs., Inc., 137 B.R. 701, 716 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1991) (Sonderby, J.); In re Pettibone, 1A B.R. at 303; But see In re MEP Infrastructure Sols., Inc., 654 B.R. 922, 925 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 2023) (Goldgar, J.) (incorrectly citing In re Stainless Sales Corp., Case No. 17 B 3148, 2017 WL 2829675, at *2 (Bankr. N.D. 111. June 27, 2017) (Barnes, J.) for the proposition that intra-office meetings between multiple lawyers are never compensable when Stainless cites to Pettibone for the foregoing-that an application must "adequately demonstrate!] that each attorney present contributed in some meaningful way" and thus satisfy 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(3)(D) by demonstrating that the meeting is "necessary" or "beneficial" and must have taken a "reasonable amount of time.").
(4) Clerical Work Not Compensable - TOTAL of disallowed amounts: $ 4.139.25
The court disallows the compensation of clerical or stenographic employees of the professional for the performance of routine clerical or administrative activities in the normal course of the professional's business, such as photocopying, secretarial work, or routine filing. Such activities are not in the nature of professional services and must be absorbed by the applicant's firm as an overhead expense. In re Dimas, LLC, 357 B.R. 563, 577 (Bankr. N.D. Cal. 2006) {citing Missouri v. Jenkins, 491 U.S. 274, 288 n. 10 (1989)); see also In re Chellino, 209 B.R. 106, 114 (Bankr. CD. 111. 1996) (Paralegal, but not "clerk" services entitled to compensation at an hourly rate; clerk activities are overhead of the professional); Souza v. Miguel, 32 F.3d 1370, 1375 (9th Cir. 1994) (Trustee not entitled to reimbursement or compensation of overhead expenses such as secretarial, stenographic, clerical, and routine messenger services).
(5) Improper Allocation of Professional Resources - TOTAL of reduced amounts $ 4.139.94
This Court finds that $19,534.50 of the fees requested are for compensation for 42.2 hours of work on tasks that could have been performed by a beginning associate but was in fact performed by and billed at the rate of a partner. The court will allow compensation of the affected time entries at the reduced rate of $364.80 per hour.
This Court used the following methodology to calculate the reduced hourly rate of $364.80 because no associate level attorneys have worked on this case: Counsel has provided this Court with an explanation of its billing rates with respect to associate attorneys. Supplemental Declaration of Shelly DeRousse in Support of the Second Interim Fee Application of Smith Gambrell & Russell LLP as Counsel to the Debtor [Dkt. No. 1268], at pp. 2-3 (the "Declaration"). While Counsel did not provide its billing rates for associates in the Declaration, it did state that "[c]urrent standard associate billing rates in Chicago for litigation and corporate associates range from $420.00 to $540.00 per hour." Id. at p. 3. For lack of a better methodology, this Court uses the midpoint, $480.00, as a starting point for determining an associate rate. Because Counsel provided that the partners working on this case have been billed at a 24% discount to their standard rates, Id. at p. 2, this Court calculated the derived rate of $364.80 by discounting the midpoint of $480.00 by 24%.
The Court denies the allowance in part of compensation for the indicated task(s) as a professional with a lower level of skill and experience or a paraprofessional could have performed the task(s). In re Pettibone, 74 B.R. 293, 303 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("Senior partner rates will be paid only for work that warrants the attention of a senior partner. A senior partner who spends time reviewing documents or doing research a beginning associate could do will be paid at a rate of a beginning associate. [Citation omitted]. Similarly, non-legal work performed by a lawyer which could have been performed by less costly non-legal employees should command a lesser rate."); In re Wildman, 72 B.R. 700, 710 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) (same); In re Alberto, 121 B.R. 531, 535 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1990) (Squires, J.) (determining use of partner appropriate where attendant complex legal issues warrant highly experienced practitioner).
(6) Lumping - TOTAL of disallowed amounts (10% of affected entries): $ 4.837.15
The Court may impose a ten percent penalty on entries that appear to be "lumping." The Court will reduce each entry marked as such per the penalty. In re Wildman, 72 B.R. 700, 709 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1987) (Schmetterer, J.) ("Applicants may not circumvent the minimum time requirement or any of the requirements of detail by "lumping" a bunch of activities into a single entry, [citation omitted]. Each type of service should be listed with the corresponding specific time allotment.").
(7) Meal Expenses - TOTAL of disallowed amounts: $ 968.86
The Court denies the allowance of reimbursement of this meal expense. In re Covent Guardian Corp., 103 B.R. 937, 942 (Bankr. N.D. 111. 1989) (Sonderby, J.) ("[I]tis highly unlikely that counsel could prove that the meal expenses were reasonably necessary for the proper representation of the debtor . . . If the attorney were not working on the case, he would still have to eat. Accordingly, the Court finds that, except in very limited circumstances, local meals are not reasonably necessary for the proper representation of the client").
