What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals. Your task is to identify the forum that heard this case immediately before the case came to the court of appeals.

PER CURIAM:
Foust Investment Company, Inc., filed its petition for a reorganization under Chapter X of the Bankruptcy Act in the District Court at Alexandria, Virginia. Foust is a Virginia corporation whose principal assets consist of an old, nonoperating, dilapidated distillery in Glen Rock, Pennsylvania, and certain distilling equipment. No plan of reorganization was disclosed and no current financial statement indicating insolvency was ever presented to the court. After an oral hearing leave was granted to file a current and up-to-date financial statement disclosing the true financial condition of the corporation but no such statement was filed. The petition was dismissed primarily for failure of petitioner to comply with 11 U.S.C. § 530(4), (6), (7), and for lack of a showing of good faith in compliance with 11 U.S.C. § 541.
Upon consideration of the record, briefs and arguments of counsel we cannot say that the court erred in dismissing the petition.
Affirmed.
