Decided September 19, 1991No. 91-2808PublishedCited by 28 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judge:

This motion to dismiss an appeal, taken from a district court exercising bankruptcy appellate jurisdiction, requires us to determine whether Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) or Rule 6(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure governs the method for comput ing the ten-day period for filing a motion for rehearing under Bankruptcy Rule 8015. Finding that Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) governs this matter, we hold that appellants’ motion for rehearing was untimely filed. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
