United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT _____________ No. 98-2042 _____________ In re: Popkin & Stern, * * Debtor, * ____________________ * * Robert J. Blackwell, Liquidating Trustee * Appeal from the United States of the Popkin & Stern Liquidating Trust, * Bankruptcy Appellate Panel. * Appellee, * [UNPUBLISHED] * v. * * Ronald U. Lurie, * * Appellant. * _____________ Submitted: December 16, 1998 Filed: December 23, 1998 _____________ Before FAGG, HEANEY, and WOLLMAN, Circuit Judges. _____________ PER CURIAM. The court has considered the briefs and the parties' submissions in this bankruptcy-related action. Ronald U. Lurie's arguments have been carefully analyzed. Having reviewed the record in the context of Lurie's arguments, we find the record supports the decision of the appellate bankruptcy court. Because the parties' submissions show they are thoroughly familiar with the issues before the court, we conclude that an extensive discussion would serve no useful purpose. We thus affirm on the basis of the opinion of the appellate bankruptcy court without further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. A true copy. Attest: CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT. -2-
