Having had the benefit of oral argument and having carefully reviewed the briefs, record, and controlling legal authorities, we agree with the district court’s analysis as set forth in its well-reasoned opinion. See Renier v. Merrell, 457 B.R. 484 (W.D.Va.2011). Accordingly, sitting as the second layer of appellate review, we affirm the district court’s affirmance of the bank *143 ruptcy court on the reasoning of the district court. AFFIRMED.
