JOHN M. WALKER, JR., Chief Judge.
In this appeal from a November 15, 2005 judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Alvin K. Hellerstein, Judge), a bankruptcy court granted a debtor’s motion to reject an unexpired commercial lease pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 365(a) nunc pro tunc to a date nearly three years earlier when it first told the parties of its intention to make the order retroactive. Under the circumstances of this case, we hold that the bankruptcy court acted within its discretion.
