                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Northern District of California
                     Jeffrey S. White, District Judge, Presiding

                           Submitted October 25, 2016**

Before:      LEAVY, SILVERMAN, and GRABER, Circuit Judges.

      Chapter 7 debtor Erlinda Abibas Aniel appeals pro se from the district

court’s order affirming the bankruptcy court’s order denying Aniel’s motion to

vacate an order denying “Debtors’ Requested Certifications Regarding Effect of

Discharge on Secured Debts.” We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We

review de novo the decision of the bankruptcy court without deference to the

district court’s decision. In re AFI Holding, Inc., 525 F.3d 700, 702 (9th Cir.

2008). We affirm.

      Contrary to Aniel’s contentions that the bankruptcy court lacked jurisdiction

to enter orders in a closed bankruptcy proceeding, the bankruptcy court did not err

by denying Aniel’s filings without first reopening her closed bankruptcy case. See

Staffer v. Predovich (In re Staffer), 306 F.3d 967, 972 (9th Cir. 2002) (reopening a

bankruptcy proceeding is not necessary for a bankruptcy court to exercise

jurisdiction unrelated to administration).

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

to vacate the order denying the “Certification of Debtors’ Discharge” where Aniel

failed to identify any basis for relief. See Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9024 (Fed. R. Civ. P.

60 applies to bankruptcy proceedings); Molloy v. Wilson, 878 F.2d 313, 315 (9th

Cir. 1989) (setting forth standard of review).

      Aniel’s argument that the bankruptcy court’s entry of the order denying the

“Certification of Debtors’ Discharge” violated Aniel’s due process rights is

unpersuasive.

      AFFIRMED.
