Tenth Circuit -- Rojem v. Workman

Rojem v. Workman

District Court fee determinations are not appealable orders. 

District Court denied review of Magistrate's determination that fees for investigation of penalty-phase issues beyond a cursory background investigation are not permitted for counsel retained for collateral attack on penalty phase.

Not analogous to a complete denial of counsel.
