No. 87-1601.

832 F.2d 58 (1987)

In the Matter of E.E. RUNYAN, Debtor. B.J. BLACKMON and Bob's Casing Crews, Inc., Appellants, v. E.E. RUNYAN, Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

October 28, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gerrit M. Pronske, Alan S. Trust, Dallas, Tex., Robert R. Truitt, Jr., Midland, Tex., for appellants.

H. Christopher Mott, Gerald P. Keith, Hagans, Ginnings, Birkelback, Keith & Delgado, El Paso, Tex., for appellee.

Before GOLDBERG, POLITZ and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.

W. EUGENE DAVIS, Circuit Judge:

The narrow issue presented by this appeal is whether the bankruptcy court had jurisdiction to entertain an involuntary Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition filed against the debtor E.E. Runyan. The bankruptcy court and the district court concluded that jurisdiction was not present under § 303 of the Bankruptcy Code. We agree and affirm the judgment of the district court dismissing the petition for lack of jurisdiction.
