PER CURIAM.

Bankruptcy trustee Fred C. Moon appeals from the decision of the Bankruptcy

Appellate Panel for the Eighth Circuit affirming the bankruptcy court’s1

 ruling that the

transfer of Mark R. Anderson’s home to the Mary Jo Hixon Trust was void and that

the property was not, therefore, an asset of the Mary Jo Hixon bankruptcy estate.

-2-

Moon v. Anderson (In re Hixon), 317 B.R. 771 (B.A.P. 8th Cir. 2004). On appeal, we

review the bankruptcy court’s factual findings for clear error and its conclusions of

law de novo. Drewes v. Vote (In re Vote), 276 F.3d 1024, 1026 (8th Cir. 2002).

Having carefully reviewed the record and applicable law, we conclude the bankruptcy

court did not clearly err in its findings of fact and did not err in its conclusions of law.

We therefore affirm for the reasons stated by the bankruptcy appellate panel. 

See 8th Cir. Rule 47B.
