1Per curiam

Appellant Robert Yaquinto, Jr., Trustee for Murexco Petroleum, Inc., appeals a decision of the district court reversing a bankruptcy court judgment which held that a contract between Murexco and Appellees Phoenix Exploration, Inc., Phoenix Operating Co., and Renown Petroleum, Inc. (Phoenix) was executory when Murexco filed its Chapter 11 petition. As we agree with the district court’s conclusion that the bankruptcy court erred in holding that the contract was execu-tory, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
