1Opinion of the Court

BYE, Circuit Judge.

Ritchie Capital Management, L.L.C., and other appellants (collectively, Ritchie) objected to an allocation of proceeds derived from a settlement between Douglas A. Kelley, in his capacity as Chapter 11 bankruptcy trustee of Petters Company, Inc. (PCI), and VICIS Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (VICIS). The bankruptcy court 1 overruled the objection and approved the settlement and the allocation of proceeds. Ritchie appealed, and the district court 2 affirmed. Ritchie again appeals, alleging the bankruptcy court abused its discretion by approving the allocation. We affirm.
