   MEMORANDUM

Ryan Melcher appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment affirming the bankruptcy court’s denial of reconsideration of an order permitting Chapter 7 Trustee John W. Richardson to sell real property free and clear of liens. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We review independently the bankruptcy court’s decision without deference to the district court’s determinations, Leichty v. Neary (In re Strand), 375 F.3d 854, 857 (9th Cir.2004), and we affirm.

The bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion by denying Melcher’s motion for reconsideration because Melcher failed to establish a basis warranting reconsideration. See 11 U.S.C. § 363(f)(4) (explaining that a bankruptcy trustee may sell property free and clear of any interest in such property if such interest is in bona fide dispute); Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9024 (applying Fed. R. Civ. P. 60 to bankruptcy proceedings with limited exceptions); Sch. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cnty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262-63 (9th Cir.1993) (setting forth the standard of review and grounds for reconsideration under Rule 60(b)).

Meleher’s contentions regarding the validity of an alleged trust agreement and whether the judgment in his state court case should be voided are unpersuasive.

AFFIRMED.
