OPINION

RUSSELL, Bankruptcy Judge.

Creditor brought a complaint to determine a debt nondischargeable pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Sections 523(a)(4) and (a)(6). The bankruptcy court found that Mr. Itule embezzled and willfully and maliciously injured the creditor’s property, and determined the debt to be nondischargeable. Mr. Itule appeals this decision. Creditor cross-appeals the court’s denial of its request for attorney’s fees. We affirm.
