“directly and adversely affected pecuniarily.”
10 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“These decisions reflect the understandable concern that if appellate standing is not limited, bankruptcy litigation will become mired in endless appeals brought by the myriad of parties who are indirectly affected by every bankruptcy court order.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“The [debtors'] Chapter 13 plan has been confirmed.. .. [T]he total amount to be paid by the [debtors] under the latest plan is $13,050.00.... Inasmuch as the [debtors] have agreed to a payout totalling $13,-050.00, they make no effective argument as to how they can be aggrieved by its allocation among the payees. They are, apparently, not liable for any further payout. Thus, since they are not directly and adversely affected pecuniarily beyond the extent to which they have already agreed, they have no standing to contest the award of attorney's fees at issue here.”
