ROTH, Circuit Judge.

Prior to the passage of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994, the Bankruptcy Code expressly, authorized the Bankruptcy Court to award fees and expenses from the debtor’s estate to the debtor’s attorneys. The. Reform Act omitted debtors’ attorneys from the list' of officers eligible to receive such an award.
