U.S. Bankruptcy Judge John K. Olson gave lawyers and accountants some holiday cheer in the Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler law firm bankruptcy case, awarding them nearly $3 million in fees.

The fees cover work done from July 1 to Oct. 31 by law firms and accounting firms employed by Herbert Stettin, the court-appointed trustee tasked with unraveling Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein’s defunct law firm and collecting money for victims.
