Art. 222 OG; moderation of attorney fees; scope of review. A fee request for representation before the Federal Court is to be moderated only if it is excessive or exceeds the applicable tariff limits. In assessing a moderation request, the Court examines the amount charged in light of the complexity and extent of the mandate; the unfavorable outcome of the underlying proceedings and alleged violations of mandate duties are not relevant criteria for moderation (consid. 1-2).
