1Opinion of the Court

THORNBERRY, Circuit Judge:

Appellant Damon K. Wilson filed this diversity action against A.A. Waggener in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. Wilson alleged that Waggener had failed to make a $100,000 payment pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement. Following a trial, the district court held that Wilson was barred from collecting the $100,000 because Wilson did not meet the good faith requirement imposed by Louisiana law. Wilson now challenges the district court’s finding of bad faith as clearly erroneous. We affirm the district court.
