1Opinion of the Court

RYAN, Circuit Judge.

The United States Trustee, M. Scott Michel, appeals an order of the district court that affirmed a bankruptcy court order allowing the debtors to employ the investment banking firm of Goldman, Sachs & Co. as a financial adviser. The appeal’s sole issue is whether the bankruptcy court erred in concluding that Goldman, Sachs is a disinterested party within the meaning of the bankruptcy code, and so properly able to serve as the debtors’ financial adviser.

Concluding that the bankruptcy code makes it quite clear that Goldman, Sachs is not a disinterested party, we reverse.
