DOJ/LA RIN: 1105-AB16 Publication ID: Fall 2008 
Title: Procedures for Review of Denial of Claims of Standing Trustee for Actual, Necessary Expenses 
Abstract: This rule sets forth the procedures for the administrative review of denials of standing trustees' claims that certain expenses are actual, necessary for their administration of chapter 12 and 13 cases. Section 1231(b) of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 ("BAPCPA"), as codified at 28 U.S.C. 586(e)(3)(4) requires that: (1) Standing trustees exhaust all administrative remedies pertaining to denial of a claim of actual, necessary expenses before seeking judicial review of them; and (2) the Attorney General prescribe procedures for administrative review of such claim denials. This rule ensures that the process of administratively reviewing denials of standing trustees' expense claims is fair and effective.
