1Opinion of the Court
ALARCON, Circuit Judge:
Danny J. Draper appeals from a judgment by the district court under 11 U.S.C § 523(a)(15) awarding attorney’s fees and costs to his creditor and former spouse, Luann Renfrow. On appeal, Mr. Draper maintains that Renfrow had no right to an award of attorney’s fees notwithstanding a provision providing for such fees in the couple’s divorce decree.
