MEMORANDUM **
Chapter 13 debtors James M. Kincaid and Estrella Kincaid appeal pro se from the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel’s (“BAP”) order dismissing their appeal from the bankruptcy court’s order dismissing their bankruptcy proceeding. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review for abuse of discretion. Morrissey v. Stuteville (In re Morrissey), 349 F.3d 1187, 1190 (9th Cir.2003). We affirm.
The BAP specifically warned the Kin-caids on two occasions of the consequences of failing to perfect their appeal, and each time gave them ten additional days to comply. Rather than file the requested document, the Kincaids filed improper motions and otherwise failed to comply with the BAP’s orders. Consequently, the BAP did not abuse its discretion by dismissing the Kincaids’ appeal for failure to prosecute. See Moneymaker v. CoBen (In re Eisen), 31 F.3d 1447, 1451-56 (9th Cir.1994).
AFFIRMED.
