Sullivan &amp; Cromwell, <a href="https://www.alvarezandmarsal.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Alvarez &amp; Marshall</a>, and other bigger advising firms submitted billings between May 1 and June 31. And an earlier report issued on Dec. 5 by court-appointed fee examiner Katherine Stadler highlighted “significant areas of concern” with these billings.
The report mentioned:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
 “The Fee Examiner identified apparently top-heavy staffing, apparently excessive meeting attendance, fees related to non-working travel time, and various technical and procedural deficiencies with respect to some time entries (including vague and lumped entries).”
