PER CURIAM:
Derek & Matthew Bissette Farms, Brantley Farms, Inc., ERW
Farms, LLC, Nichols & Nichols Farms, Inc., and Rock Ridge Farms
Partnership appeal from the district court’s order affirming the
bankruptcy court’s order dismissing their complaint filed in the
underlying bankruptcy proceeding, seeking to assert certain
rights under the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act, 7
U.S.C. §§ 499a-499t (2012). We have reviewed the record included
on appeal, as well as the parties’ briefs, and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
courts below. Derek & Matthew Bissette Farms v. Bissett Produce,
Inc., No. 5:14-cv-00451-FL (E.D.N.C. Feb. 2, 2015). 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
