MEMORANDUM**

2
Bankruptcy debtor Doug McKinney appeals pro se a decision of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel ("BAP") affirming a judgment by the bankruptcy court in favor of Gigi Doyle Baldwin, after a bench trial, in McKinney's action seeking to establish the non-dischargeability of a debt.   The debt arose out McKinney's contract to do a remodeling job on Baldwin's home.   We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 158(d).   We have reviewed the record and affirm for the reasons set forth in the BAP's December 1, 1994 opinion.1

3
AFFIRMED.

*
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.   Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  9th Cir.R. 34-4.   Accordingly, the request for oral argument is denied

**
 This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir.R. 36-3

 We reject McKinney's contention that the BAP improperly decided his case without allowing him the opportunity for oral argument.   See Fed.R.Bankr.P. 8012;  Toquero v. INS, 956 F.2d 193, 196 n. 4 (9th Cir.1992) ("[I]t is well settled that oral argument is not necessary to satisfy due process.")
