Before FAGG, BEAM, and LOKEN, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.
      Carolynne Kieffer appeals the district court&s1 order dismissing her bankruptcy
appeal, and the court&s subsequent order denying reconsideration. After careful review
of the record and the parties& briefs, we affirm the judgment of the district court
dismissing the bankruptcy appeal for the reasons set forth in its opinion, and we also
affirm the denial of Kieffer&s motion for reconsideration as no abuse of discretion
occurred. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
