Before LOKEN, Chief Judge, ARNOLD and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                              ___________

PER CURIAM.

       After a bankruptcy court1 determined that Eddie V. Hamilton had converted
Nancy Hamilton's property, it determined that she had suffered $43,840.00 in damages
and held that this debt was not dischargeable. See 11 U.S.C. ยง 523(a)(6). The district
court2 upheld the bankruptcy court's order on appeal. Mr. Hamilton asserts that in
reaching its judgment the bankruptcy court applied the wrong measure of damages

      1
       The Honorable James G. Mixon, United States Bankruptcy Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas.
      2
       The Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas.
and erred in assessing their amount. After a thorough review of the record, we detect
no error of law or fact and affirm the district court's judgment on the basis of the well-
reasoned opinions below. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                         ______________________________
