PER CURIAM:

            Keith A. Cousins appeals from the bankruptcy court’s

orders holding him in contempt for filing a lawsuit in violation

of the releases contained within the Order of Confirmation of

the   Appellees’       Chapter   11    Bankruptcy    Plan,    and     denying

reconsideration of that order. *       Our review of the record and the

briefs    filed   by   the   parties   discloses    no   reversible    error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the bankruptcy

court.     Cousins v. Movie Gallery, Inc., No. 07-33849 (Bankr.

E.D. Va. Sept. 25 & Nov. 17, 2009).                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

      *
       We previously granted the parties’ petition for permission
to appeal directly to this court from the bankruptcy court. See
Fed. R. Bankr. P. 8001(f)(2)(B).
