1Opinion of the Court
LESLIE H. SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judge:
This bankruptcy appeal presents a question of statutory interpretation concerning “reasonable compensation” of Chapter 7 bankruptcy trustees under 11 U.S.C. §§ 326 & 330. The bankruptcy court reduced the trustee’s requested fee. The district court vacated and remanded the bankruptcy court’s order because the court failed to provide sufficient explanation for its reduction. While we reject the district court’s statutory interpretation on remand, we AFFIRM that court’s decision to vacate and remand.
