ORDER

O’KELLEY, Senior District Judge.

The captioned case is before the court on appeal from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Appellants contend that the bankruptcy court erroneously construed 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(8) to permit a partial discharge of appellee’s student loan indebtedness absent a showing of “undue hardship.” 11 .U.S.C. § 523(a)(8) (2001). Therefore, appellants argue, this court must reverse the bankruptcy court’s order reducing the principal balance of appellee’s student loans from $114,000 to $50,000.
