one solution to using a footnote in a tabbing environment is to
explicitly set the footnote flag & then set the footnote outside
of the tabbing environment.

e.g.,

\begin{tabbing}
	....
\global\edef\thatFootNote{\thefootnote}
\protect\footnotemark[\thatFootNote]

\end{tabbing}

....
\footnotetext[\thatFootNote]{
	....
}

except you need to fiddle with placement to make it land on the same page.
certainly not an elegant solution, but if you want to finish your
thesis, it works.
