Roberts Broadcasting Company v. DeWoskin

The Bankruptcy Appellate Panel affirmed the bankruptcy court's opinion and order abstaining from hearing Roberts Broadcasting's malpractice claim against Danna McKitrick pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1331(c)(1). McKitrick represented Roberts Broadcasting in its chapter 11 case. The Panel explained that the bankruptcy court considered and addressed each of the listed criteria, and it considered and addressed only the listed criteria. Therefore, the bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion either by failing to consider a relevant factor that should have been given significant weight or by considering and giving significant weight to an irrelevant or improper factor.
