PER CURIAM:
Fatemeh Najafian appeals the district court’s order
affirming the bankruptcy court’s order denying her a hardship
discharge of student loan debt pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(8)
(2006). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we grant Najafian’s motion to proceed in
forma pauperis and affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Najafian v. Educ. Credit Mgmt, No. 1:12-cv-01408-AJT-TCB
(E.D. Va. Apr. 5, 2013). 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 the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
