The firm says it worked more than 100,000 billable hours during that period. Lead lawyer Harvey Miller is asking to be paid $950 for each of the nearly 795 hours he worked during the period.

An expense request that Weil also filed Monday includes more than $200,000 for business meals, $439,000 for computerized and "other" research, $115,000 on local transportation and $287,000 on duplicating charges, at 10 cents a page.

Nearly a dozen other law firms have so far submitted fee applications in the Lehman matter, requesting a total of $27 million. The case's total amount of court-approved fees -- to lawyers, financial advisers, restructuring consultants and others -- could top $900 million, Mr. LoPucki estimates.
