                  Appellant,

   v.

 NABILSI YUNES ABUD,

                  Appellee.

                           Appeal from the Ninth Circuit
                             Bankruptcy Appellate Panel

except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
        **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
judgment affirming the bankruptcy court’s order denying relief from its judgment

dismissing Saxena’s adversary proceeding as untimely. We have jurisdiction

under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review BAP decisions de novo and apply the same

standard of review that the BAP applied to the bankruptcy court’s ruling. Boyajian

v. New Falls Corp. (In re Boyajian), 564 F.3d 1088, 1090 (9th Cir. 2009). We

affirm.

      The bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion by denying Saxena’s

motion for relief from judgment under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) because Saxena failed

to demonstrate any basis for relief. See Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9024 (making Fed. R.

Civ. P. 60 applicable to bankruptcy cases); see also, e.g., Pioneer Inv. Servs. Co. v.

Brunswick Assocs. Ltd. P’ship, 507 U.S. 380, 394-97 (1993) (discussing

requirements for excusable neglect under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(1)); Zurich Am. Ins.

Co. v. Int’l Fibercom, Inc. (In re Int’l Fibercom, Inc.), 503 F.3d 933, 940-41 (9th

Cir. 2007) (discussing requirements for application of “catch-all provision” of Fed.

R. Civ. P. 60(b)(6)).

      AFFIRMED.
