PER CURIAM:

      Edward R. Kohout appeals the district court’s order affirming

the   bankruptcy   court’s   order:       (1)   sustaining   the   Trustee’s

objection to Kohout’s application for employment as counsel in the

underlying bankruptcy proceeding, and (2) requiring Kohout to

disgorge $24,000 in fees he received for legal services.            We have

reviewed the parties’ briefs and the record included on appeal and

have found no reversible error.           Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court.           United States Trustee v.

Kohout, No. 1:13-cv-00183-IMK (N.D.W. Va. Aug. 4, 2014).                 We

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions

are adequately presented in the materials before this court and

argument would not aid in the decisional process.
