Group Represents TelexFREE Victims
According to bankruptcy court records, three law firms have asked the court to release funds for legal counsel provided to TelexFREE when it filed for bankruptcy in April. A letter filed by a lawyer representing the victims' committee asked the court to either disallow the firms' applications for payment or postpone a decision on them until an official committee to represent TelexFREE's creditors has been created by the bankruptcy trustee.
