IN RE: Peter F. BRONSON; Sherri L. Bronson, husband and wife, Debtors, Peter F. Bronson; Sherri L. Bronson, Debtors-Appellants, v. Dale D. Ulrich, Chapter 7 Trustee, Trustee-Appellee, 693 F. App'x 719

MEMORANDUM Peter F. Bronson and Sherri L. Bronson appeal pro se from the district court’s order dismissing as moot their appeal from the bankruptcy court’s order approving the final distribution of the bankruptcy estate. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review de novo a district court’s determination that a bankruptcy appeal is moot. Nat’l Mass Media Telecomm. Sys., Inc. v. Stanley (In re Nat’l Mass Media Telecomm. Sys., Inc.), 152 F.3d 1178, 1180 (9th Cir. 1998). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed the Bronsons’ appeal as moot because the Bronsons failed to request a stay of the bankruptcy court’s order and the bank-ruptcy estate has been fully administered. See Trone v. Roberts Farms, Inc. (In re Roberts Farms, Inc.), 652 F.2d 793, 798 (9th Cir. 1981) (“Appellants have failed and neglected diligently to pursue their available remedies to obtain a stay of the objectionable orders of the Bankruptcy Court and have permitted such a comprehensive change of circumstances to occur as to render it inequitable for this court to consider the merits of the appeal.”).

Because the Bronsons’ appeal is moot, we do not consider their contentions addressing the underlying merits of the appeal. We reject as meritless the Bronsons’ contentions of judicial bias. AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
