ORDER
Advertisement
We affirm the decision of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel1 because in January of 1985 when the agreement regarding interest was made, Richard Smiley, the Farmers Home Administration State Director for Arizona, lacked authority to enter into the agreement. We do not reach the other issues discussed in the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel's decision.
AFFIRMED.
In re Growers-Ranchers Ltd., 110 B.R. 915 (B.A.P.9th Cir.1990)
