PER CURIAM:

          Steven Kendall appeals from the district court’s order

affirming the bankruptcy court’s order entering judgment in favor

of Aparna Gupta on her action challenging the dischargeability,

under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(2)(A) (2000), of a $65,000 loan made by

Gupta to Kendall.   We have reviewed the record on appeal and the

parties’ briefs and conclude that the bankruptcy court did not

clearly err in finding that the debt at issue constituted an

“extension, renewal, or refinancing of credit,” and that it was

procured through fraud, within the meaning of § 523(a)(2).   See In

re Biondo, 180 F.3d 126, 130 (4th Cir. 1999).     Accordingly, we

affirm. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                           AFFIRMED
