PER CURIAM:
OPINION
Advertisement
MAPCO Coal, Inc., appeals the district court's affirmance of a bankruptcy court order granting summary judgment for Jno. McCall Coal Company. MAPCO contends the bankruptcy court erred in finding that an Escrow Agreement between MAPCO and McCall unambiguously prohibits MAPCO from recovering funds held in escrow as indemnification for McCall's breach of the parties' Marketing Services Agreement.
Our review of the record, the bankruptcy and district courts' opinions, and the arguments of counsel disclose that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the basis of the well-reasoned bankruptcy and district courts' opinions. Jno. McCall Coal Co. v. MAPCO Coal, Inc. (In re Jno. McCall Co.), No. A91-0152-JS (Bankr. D. Md. Feb. 5, 1992), aff'd, No. B-92-890 (D. Md. Aug. 4, 1992).
AFFIRMED
