1Opinion of the Court
THOMAS, Circuit Judge:
We must decide whether a bankruptcy court may order substantive consolidation of two non-debtor corporations, World Plus, Inc. and Atlantic Pacific Funding Corporation, with the bankruptcy estate of Chapter 7 debtor Raejean Bonham nunc pro tunc as of the filing date of the involuntary Chapter 7 petition. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 158(d), and we reverse the decision of the district court and remand with instructions to affirm the bankruptcy court’s order of nunc pro tunc substantive consolidation.
