Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:

     Michele Blankenship appeals from the district court’s order

affirming     the   bankruptcy   court’s   order    avoiding   $3501   of

Defendant’s $16,000 lien against her real property pursuant to 11

U.S.C.A. § 522(f) (West Supp. 2002).       We have reviewed the record

and the lower courts’ opinions and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See

Darden v. Blankenship, Nos. CA-01-876-2; BK-99-25293-S (E.D. Va.

filed Apr. 5, 2002; entered Apr. 8, 2002).         We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.

                                                                AFFIRMED
