ORDER ON REHEARING
Sept. 28, 1995
LEISURE, District Judge:
On September 6,1995, the Court issued an Opinion and Order affirming the decision of the Bankruptcy Court (Gallet, J.), ruling, in substance that Plaintiff-Appellee’s claims were not time-barred. Defendants-appellants petition for rehearing pursuant to Rule 8015 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.
Because no standards for the motion are set forth in Bankruptcy Rule 8015, the Court turns to Rule 40(a) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, see Olson v. United States, 162 B.R. 831, 834 (D.Neb. 1993), which provides, in part, that “[t]he petition must state with particularity the points of law or fact which in the opinion of the petitioner the court has overlooked or misapprehended.” Appellees base their argument on a Ninth Circuit case, which was decided shortly after issuance of this Court’s Opinion and Order and which came to a contrary conclusion. The Court concludes that the existence of contrary authority in other circuits, established after the Court’s decision, does not constitute a point of law or fact overlooked or misapprehended by the Court. Accordingly, defendants-appellants’ motion for rehearing is HEREBY DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
