RIVERBEND CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION,

Appellant

v.

TORRANCE TREMAYNE GREEN,

Appellee

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Louisiana

Before KING, SMITH, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

In this Chapter 13 bankruptcy case, the bankruptcy court held that the privilege created by La. Rev. Stat. § 9:1123.115(1) (2014) on a Louisiana condominium for all unpaid sums assessed by the condominium association against the condominium owner is a statutory lien (as distinguished from a security interest) and is therefore subject to bifurcation under 11 U.S.C. § 1322(b)(2). The district court affirmed. For the reasons given by the district court in its Order and Reasons attached hereto, we affirm the district court’s affirmance of the bankruptcy court’s order. AFFIRMED.
