10-60020 2
Melody L. Lark appeals pro se from the decision of the Bankruptcy
Appellate Panel affirming the bankruptcy court’s determination of the non-
dischargeability of Lark’s student loans under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(8). We have
jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review de novo, Rifino v. United States
(In re Rifino), 245 F.3d 1083, 1087 (9th Cir. 2001), and we dismiss.
We cannot review Lark’s challenge to the bankruptcy court’s oral
determination of the non-dischargeability of her student loans because Lark failed
to include the relevant transcripts in the record on appeal as required by Fed. R.
App. P. 10(b)(2). See Syncom Capital Corp. v. Wade, 924 F.2d 167, 169-70 (9th
Cir. 1991) (per curiam) (dismissing appeal for appellant’s failure to provide a
transcript).
DISMISSED.
