The LaBrum & Doak law firm bankruptcy -- once a multimillion dollar, fractious court battle among dozens of disgruntled lawyers -- has boiled down to objections from two former partners who say they should not be forced to contribute to pay off the firm's debts. Of the 34 former partners sued by the plan administrator for contributions, only two are appealing the orders by a U.S. Bankruptcy Judge, claiming they left well before the firm folded.

The LaBrum & Doak law firm bankruptcy — once a multi-million dollar, fractious court battle among dozens of disgruntled lawyers — has now boiled down to objections from just two former partners who say they should not be forced to contribute to pay off the firm’s debts.
Of the 34 former partners who were sued by the plan administrator for contributions, only two — John J. Seehousen and Jonathan D. Herbst — are appealing the orders by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge David A. Scholl.
