UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 17-1709 BRIAN K. FAILON, Debtor - Appellant, v. COMPASS CHEMICAL INTERNATIONAL, LLC, Plaintiff - Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. John A. Gibney, Jr., District Judge. (3:16-cv-00926-JAG) Submitted: January 29, 2018 Decided: February 12, 2018 Before WILKINSON, FLOYD, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Richard F. Hawkins, III, THE HAWKINS LAW FIRM, PC, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellant. Jennifer J. West, James Donaldson, SPOTTS FAIN, PC, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Brian K. Failon appeals the district court’s order affirming the bankruptcy court’s order determining that his debt to Compass Chemical International, LLC, is nondischargeable in his Chapter 7 proceeding under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(6). We have reviewed the record included on appeal, as well as the parties’ briefs, and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Failon v. Compass Chem. Int’l, LLC, No. 3:16-cv-00926-JAG (E.D. Va. May 8, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
