               Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the Northern District of Alabama
                     _________________________

                          (December 19, 2007)

Before BLACK, CARNES and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Phillip A. Talley appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment in

favor of the City of Moody, Alabama, in a bankruptcy adversary proceeding.

Talley alleges the City violated his bankruptcy stay by forcing him to pay a traffic

fine after his bankruptcy petition was filed. The bankruptcy court concluded the

traffic fine was a continuation of criminal proceedings permitted by 11 U.S.C.

§ 362(b)(1). The district court affirmed. After review of the record and the

parties’ briefs, we affirm for the reasons stated in the district court’s well-reasoned

opinion of February 28, 2007.

      AFFIRMED.
