Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia _________________________ (July 25, 2000)

Before TJOFLAT and HULL, Circuit Judges, and PROPST*, District Judge.

PER CURIAM:

* Honorable Robert B. Propst, U.S. District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama, sitting by designation. After review and oral argument, we affirm in full the judgment of the district

court which reversed the bankruptcy court’s denial of Appellant Alcatel’s motion to

have its proof of claim treated as timely filed.

The judgment of the district court is correct for the reasons set out in the district

court’s thorough and well-reasoned order, dated September 8, 1999.

AFFIRMED.
