PER CURIAM: Appellee Judith Hackbart is a Chapter 7 debtor. Hackbart has two mortgages on her house. The first mortgage exceeds the current market value of the house.

The bankruptcy court granted the motion, and the district court affirmed. We affirm the district court’s order. Folendore v. Small Bus. Admin., 862 F.2d 1537, 1540 (11th Cir. 1989); McNeal v.
