1Opinion of the Court

TANG, Circuit Judge:

Creditor Alan Wright holds a final judgment against debtor Herbert Holm for compensatory and punitive damages as the result of a general jury verdict. Wright filed no formal proof of claim until after the claim’s bar date. However, Wright filed a disclosure statement and plan of reorganization prior to the claim’s bar date. Holm objected to Wright’s claim on four grounds. The bankruptcy court overruled three of the objections, but disallowed the punitive damages, at least temporarily. On appeal, the district court affirmed. Holm appeals. We affirm.
