PER CURIAM:
We have had the benefit of oral argument, and have carefully reviewed the
briefs of the parties and record. We conclude that the judgment of the district court
should be affirmed. Regions Bank makes essentially two arguments on appeal:1
that there is an insufficient evidentiary basis in the record to support the
bankruptcy judge’s approval of the compromise; and that Regions Bank did not
have a sufficient opportunity for discovery to test the reasonableness of the
compromise.
For the reasons set forth by the bankruptcy judge and the district judge, and
for the reasons fully explored at oral argument, we conclude that Regions Bank’s
arguments are wholly without merit.
AFFIRMED.
1 Other arguments on appeal are rejected without need for discussion.
