    No. 99-1178.
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted Jan. 6, 2000.
    Decided Feb. 11, 2000.
    Stephen Bennett, Sherwood, AR, for appellant.
    J.R. Buzbee, Little Rock, AR, for appel-lee.
    Before MCMILLIAN, RICHARD S. ARNOLD, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

C. Dean Ferren initiated an adversary proceeding in bankruptcy court seeking to recover the proceeds from the foreclosure and sale of certain real estate which had been disbursed by the Arkansas Chancery Court to satisfy judicial liens against Fer-ren. He' argued to the bankruptcy court, as he had to the Chancery Court, that his bankruptcy had discharged the liens. The bankruptcy court dismissed the action, and the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel affirmed under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Ferren appeals.

We agree with the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel that Rooker-Feldman bars Fer-ren’s action. If the bankruptcy court were to entertain Ferren’s adversary proceeding, it would necessarily be reviewing the lien-discharge argument already rejected by the Arkansas Chancery Court, and in order to grant Ferren the relief he seeks, the bankruptcy court would have to effectively void the Arkansas Chancery Court’s decision. Under Rooker-Feldman, the bankruptcy court lacks jurisdiction to do so. See Fielder v. Credit Acceptance Corp., 188 F.3d 1031, 1034-35 (8th Cir.1999).

. We note that the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the Ninth Circuit has taken the opposite view in its decision in In re Pavelich, 229 B.R. 777, 781-83 (9th Cir. BAP 1999) (a federal court has jurisdiction to collaterally attack an erroneous state court construction of a bankruptcy discharge because it is void ab initio under 11 U.S.C. § 524(a)(1)), but we specifically reject its view of the applicability of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Instead, we agree with the reasoning of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel of the Sixth Circuit in its decision in In re Singleton, 230 B.R. 533 (6th Cir. BAP 1999) (state court determination that bankruptcy order staying sale of debtor’s personal property did not apply to other property of the debtor is not subject to collateral attack by a federal court because no exception to Rooker-Feldman doctrine applies). In our present case, the state court determined that the judicial liens had not been discharged during federal bankruptcy proceedings. In our view, Ferren’s only remedy at that point was to appeal within the state courts of Arkansas, because the bankruptcy court lacked jurisdiction to overturn the state court judgment and we decline to create an exception to the Rooker-Feldman doctrine.

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel.
