The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
(“BAP”) judgment affirming the bankruptcy court’s order denying her motions for
reconsideration. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review de
novo BAP decisions 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 err by denying Conry’s motions for
reconsideration for lack of standing because Conry failed to establish that she was
personally aggrieved by the bankruptcy court’s order granting the other creditors’
motion for relief from the automatic stay. See Harkey v. Grobstein (In re Point
Ctr. Fin., Inc.), 890 F.3d 1188, 1191 (9th Cir. 2018) (“[O]nly a person aggrieved,
that is, someone who is directly and adversely affected pecuniarily by a bankruptcy
court’s order, has standing to appeal that order.” (citation and internal quotation
marks omitted)).
We do not consider the underlying bankruptcy court order granting the other
creditors’ motion for relief from the automatic stay because the notice of appeal
was untimely. See Fed. R. Bankr. P. 8002(a)(1) (notice of appeal from a
bankruptcy court order must be filed within 14 days after the filing of the order);
Anderson v. Mouradick (In re Mouradick), 13 F.3d 326, 327 (9th Cir. 1994) (“The
provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 8002 are jurisdictional; the untimely filing of a
notice of appeal deprives the appellate court of jurisdiction to review the
2 20-60053
bankruptcy court’s order.” (citations omitted)).
We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued
in the opening brief or allegations raised for the first time on appeal. See Padgett
v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).
All pending motions and requests are denied.
AFFIRMED.
