In Re Growers-Ranchers, Ltd., Debtor, the Empire Partnership v. United States of America, Farmers Home Administration

Opinion

ORDER

We affirm the decision of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel 1 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.

1

. In re Growers-Ranchers Ltd., 110 B.R. 915 (B.A.P.9th Cir. 1990).
