known to the parties and need not be discussed at length. Briefly, the government filed a
complaint to foreclose on a lien against Snyder’s property in order to fulfill a judgment
against her for unpaid taxes. The District Court entered an order of sale and later
amended the order to require any occupants to vacate or be evicted. Snyder filed a
motion for reconsideration of the amended order. After the District Court denied the
motion, she filed a timely notice of appeal. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
Snyder argues on appeal that she discharged her tax debt before the complaint was
filed by tendering a “public office money certificate,” which the District Court noted
correctly was her personal note. For the reasons given by the District Court as to this and
Snyder’s other arguments, we conclude they are without merit. Accordingly, we will
affirm the District Court’s order.
