No Significant “Bankruptcy Attorney” Developments Reported on September 13, 2025

Lead: No major actions, indictments or disciplinary rulings involving a bankruptcy attorney were reported on Saturday, September 13, 2025, in federal or state courts, law firm announcements or government press releases.

Nut Graf: Although bankruptcy practitioners frequently appear in news for court appointments, fee disputes or ethical inquiries, there were no new public filings, sanctions or criminal charges announced today specifically concerning a bankruptcy attorney.

Background and Context

Since late August 2025, several high-profile bankruptcy-related developments have drawn attention:

• A Maryland bankruptcy lawyer was disbarred on September 4 for failing to competently represent multiple clients.
• The U.S. Trustee Program secured over $1.1 million in relief against 12 defendants in a foreclosure defense fraud scheme on September 8.
• An Illinois attorney was sentenced in February 2025 to 30 months for tax and bankruptcy fraud.

Despite this flurry of activity in recent weeks, no new bankruptcy-attorney news-such as an indictment, disbarment, resignation, judicial ethics action or sentencing-emerged on September 13, 2025.

Ongoing Matters to Watch

− Jackson Walker Fee Dispute: Mediation continues over whether Jackson Walker must disgorge millions in fees linked to its partner’s undisclosed relationship with a bankruptcy judge. − Tidewater Landfill Injunction Issues: Courts are evaluating whether they may temporarily stay claims against non-debtors in bankruptcy cases post-Purdue Pharma rulings; opinions from Louisiana due soon. − Chapter 13 Debt-Limit Amendment: The Senate may debate raising debt thresholds, as small-business bankruptcy attorneys argue current caps exclude many earners from reorganization relief.

Absent any breaking developments today, stakeholders should monitor these ongoing matters for next updates.
