<P> Vick's attorneys filed a first plan of reorganization through bankruptcy on November 12, 2008 . Under the plan, Vick was to sell three of his six homes . Vick's expenses, meanwhile, included support payments of approximately $30,000 a month . They included $14,531 a month to his mother, $12,363 a month to his fiancée and two daughters, and $3,500 a month to Taylor . Creditors challenged Vick's spending plan given his loss of salary and suspension from the NFL . Vick's attorneys told the judge on November 13 that Vick "has every reason to believe that upon his release, he will be reinstated into the NFL, resume his career and be able to earn a substantial living ." </P> <P> After creditors objected to the initial reorganization plan, Vick appeared in person before Santoro at a hearing in Newport News on April 2, 2009 . Santoro had decided not to allow testimony by video in March, saying he needed Vick in the courtroom to assess his demeanor and credibility . Vick testified that he intended to live a better life after prison . He said his crime was "heinous" and he felt "true remorse ." Near the end of the hearing, Santoro rejected the plan as unsound, saying that it was too strongly predicated on Vick's return to the NFL and the substantial projected income it would bring, neither of which was assured . </P> <P> The judge commended Vick for trying to work out his financial mess after years of poor choices, but told Vick the numbers did not add up . Santoro adjourned the case and told Vick to work with his advisers to create a new plan, suggesting Vick begin by liquidating one or both of his Virginia homes, as well as three of the cars he intended to keep, and "buy a house more within his means ." Vick had testified that he felt obligated to provide for friends and family because of "where he had come from ." Santoro told Vick that while that was commendable, "You cannot be everything to everybody . If you do, you're going to be nothing to anybody ." </P> <P> On April 28, attorneys met with Santoro and said they made substantial progress on a revised plan . They reported having settled all disputes with Vick's creditors, including Joel . On August 27, Santoro approved the revised reorganization plan . It was supported by all of Vick's creditors but one who was owed $13,000 . Every creditor was to be paid back in six years on the condition that an estimated $9 million in assets be liquidated . Vick was allowed annual living expenses of $300,000 under the plan . He could spend up to $3,500 a month for rent in Philadelphia and $750 for "utilities and miscellaneous ." He was to pay $3,712 a month on the mortgage for his house in Hampton, Virginia, where his fiancée and two children lived, and could pay up to $1,355 per month in private school tuition for his children . Vick was also given up to $472 a month in car - related expenses . His mother was allowed $2,500 per month, and his former girlfriend Tameka Taylor was allotted $3,000 per month to support their son, Mitez . Vick was not required to pay creditors during his first season with the Eagles . Vick paid his agent, Joel Segal, $32,500 in 2010, $104,000 in 2011, and would pay him $160,000 each year from 2012--2015 for a total of $776,500 . He paid bankruptcy lawyers $748,750 in 2010, $1 million in 2011, and a total of $2.6 million . </P>
