U.S. COURT OF APPEALS2 19

- 60018

from the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel’s judgment affirming the bankruptcy court’s

judgment against them, following a trial in Kirakosian ’s adversary proceeding

alleging nondischargeability of debt . We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.

§ 158(d)

. We review de novo the bankruptcy court’s conclusions of l aw, and for

clear error its findings of fact. Jones v. U.S. Trustee , 736 F.3d 897, 899 (9th Cir.

2013). We affirm.

The bankruptcy court did not clearly err in finding that appellants’ debt to

Kirakosian was nondischargeable under 11 U.S.C § 523(a)(2)(A) or (a)(6)

. See

Grogan v. Garner , 498 U.S. 279, 286

- 91 (1991) ( preponderance of evidence

standard applies to nondischargeability claim s under § 523); Ghomeshi v. Sabban

( In re Sabban

) , 600 F.3d 1219, 122 2 (9th Cir. 2010) ( set ting forth elements for

claim under § 523(a)(2)(A) ) ; Banks v. Gill Distribution Ctrs., Inc. (In re Banks)

,

263 F.3d 862, 869

- 70 (9th Cir. 2001) (discussing willful injury requirement for

claim under § 523(a)(6))

.

We do not consider appellants’ arguments regarding hearsay and unverified

exhibits not raised before the bankruptcy court. See Price v. Kramer , 200 F.3d

1237, 1252 (9th Cir. 2000) (failure to object to evidence at trial on the specific

basis raised on appeal results in waiver of challe nge to admissibility ).

We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued

in the opening brief. See Padgett v. Wright , 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).3 19

- 60018

In light of our disposition, appellants’ motion to dismiss Kirakosian’s

adversary proceeding (Docket Entry No. 10) is denied as moot

.

AFFIRMED.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

TENTH CIRCUIT

GREGORY LYNN GALES,

Petitioner - Appellant,

v.

LOUIS BRUCE, Warden; PHILL

KLINE, Attorney General of the State

of Kansas, 

Respondents - Appellees.

No. 04-3414

(D. Kansas)

(D.Ct. No. 04-CV-3300-SAC)

ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY

AND DISMISSING APPEAL

Before KELLY, O’BRIEN, and TYMKOVICH, Circuit Judges.

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined

unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of

this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is

therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Petitioner-Appellant Gregory Lynn Gales, a state prisoner appearing pro

se,

1

 seeks a certificate of appealability ("COA") allowing him to appeal the
-2-

district court's order denying his petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 2254. Because we conclude Gales has not exhausted his state court

remedies, we deny a COA and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1);

O’Sullivan v. Boerckel, 526 U.S. 838, 844-45 (1999).

 The parties are familiar with the facts and we need not restate them here. 

On appeal, Gales reasserts the claims he presented below, specifically that his

Fourteenth Amendment Due Process rights were violated in his state court

criminal proceedings as they pertained to his right to a speedy trial, the

admissibility of evidence, the lack of a probable cause hearing and the use of a

defective complaint and affidavits. Gales acknowledged to the district court that

the issues raised in his habeas petition were not raised in his direct appeal, nor did

he pursue any state post-conviction relief under KAN. STAT. ANN. § 60-1507. The

district court dismissed Gales’ habeas petition without prejudice for failure to

exhaust his state court remedies.

After careful consideration of the materials submitted by Gales against a

backdrop of the state court record, the district court’s conclusions are not

reasonably debatable. See Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 327 (2003). In

this appeal, Gales does not allege that he has exhausted his state court remedies,

but rather argues the district court erred because it “has no jurisdiction to judge

what arises out of [the] direct appeal process.” (R., Application for COA at 3.) 
-3-

Gales misapprehends 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1).

For substantially the same reasons set forth by the district court, we DENY

Gales' request for a COA and DISMISS the appeal.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Norwest Mortgage, Inc.:


We  have  examined  management's  assertion  about  Norwest  Mortgage  Banking's
compliance  with the minimum  servicing  standards  identified  in the  Mortgage
Bankers Association of America's UNIFORM SINGLE ATTESTATION PROGRAM FOR MORTGAGE
BANKERS (USAP) as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996,  included in  the
accompanying  management  assertion.   Management  is  responsible  for  Norwest
Mortgage  Banking's  compliance  with those  minimum  servicing  standards.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion  on  management's  assertion  about the
entity's compliance based on our examination.

Our  examination  was  made in  accordance  with  standards  established  by the
American  Institute of Certified Public Accountants and,  accordingly,  included
examining, on a test basis, evidence about Norwest Mortgage Banking's compliance
with the minimum servicing  standards and performing such other procedures as we
considered  necessary  in the  circumstances.  We believe  that our  examination
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.  Our examination does not provide a
legal  determination on Norwest Mortgage  Banking's  compliance with the minimum
servicing standards.

In our opinion,  management's  assertion that Norwest  Mortgage Banking complied
with the aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1996, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
