RIVERBEND CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION,

Appellant

v.

TORRANCE TREMAYNE GREEN,

Appellee

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Eastern District of Louisiana

Before KING, SMITH, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

In this Chapter 13 bankruptcy case, the bankruptcy court held that the 

privilege created by La. Rev. Stat. § 9:1123.115(1) (2014) on a Louisiana 

condominium for all unpaid sums assessed by the condominium association

against the condominium owner is a statutory lien (as distinguished from a 

security interest) and is therefore subject to bifurcation under 11 U.S.C. 

§ 1322(b)(2). The district court affirmed. For the reasons given by the district
